Thanks for the info guys!! I spotted a few fenced zebra last year in S Texas and thought that it would make a pretty cool mount, just wasn't sure if I was gonna eat it or feed it to the pup....

I heard Whooping Crane but I wouldn't know the difference.

I actually got invited to a hunt down in South TX that had a decent herd that was pretty well free range on a big ranch my former bosses were on. We got a green light to shoot one or shoot a Nilgai or whatever the name of that big arse antelope is. I passed on the Zebra and did a spot and stalk on the Nilgai just because killing a Zebra seemed like I was taking out a zoo animal even though these critters were wild as frick. Maybe I should have shot the Zebra instead....

Agree completely. Had it in Nairobi at a state sponsored restaraunt called the Carnivore.
Had pretty much all the game meats available and my favorite three were ostrich, zebra and giraffe , in that order.

The USDA approved the sale of horse meat in the United States last year. If you do some research you can find it. It's vey lean so the high activity cuts have to be slow cooked. The tenderloin is nearly indiscernible from grassed beef.

Thought about Crane but some jerk recently killed two of the remaining 30 or so in LA around here recently. Thought it might be in poor "taste".

I actually had it during the LSU-Oklahoma championship game in '04.

The owner of Amethyst Construction in West Monroe has some high-fence land out hwy 15 with all kinds of ridiculous wildlife, including zebras.

Hard to remember a meal over a decade ago, but I think it tasted pretty good.

Nice judgement, there. I know a guy that went on a safari and he only shot culls, and couldn't bring anything home with him. He killed a ton of different things... Cost him like $1000 + cost of travel or something to that effect.

Spotted owl is much better than Bald Eagle.

My boss killed 2 on his last trip to Africa and said it is awesome. He killed 21 animals I believe and said the giraffe was the only thing he could not eat.


Hunting and killing any animal in Africa other than a cheetah requires about as much skill as pulling off the side of the highway and shooting a cow standing in a pasture. You can drive up to within 10 feet of lions, elephants, rino.

Lions, elephants, buffalos can kill you. Cows aren't really known for killing you if they charge.

Does not compute.
