Default RE: Who wants to shoot a elephant in afrika ?

No desire whatsoever.

Why?

No antlers.
No fur.
No sheds.
Can't be called in close.
You'd need to carry several gallons of scent into the woods with you.
Their rubs could take down you, your treestand and your tree.
Their scrapes could take out your 4x4.
The butcher bill would require a second mortgage.
The freezer needed would require the purchase of a parcel of real estate.
The backstraps would require the purchase of seasoning in bulk quantities.
Blood trailing would require waders.

And last but not least...can you imagine the drag back to the truck?
