So I work in DRC and don't see much wildlife as the locals eat them faster than they reproduce. I did run across a few and figured I would see if anyone knows the names for these creatures.

Re: Name these animals!
This bird is massive! It is also super creepy when you are only a few feet away from it.

Re: Name these animals!
I have been told they cost around $10K. So we know the bird is a African Shoe Bill.
The one on top I was told $35k to put a bullet in a buck. Any one know what it is?
This says birds are animals also.

Re: Name these animals!
Nuttshooter,
The animal up top appears to be a Kob. There are a few different species, Ugandan, Western and White Eared, with perhaps one or two others. Pretty interesting trophy, as they appear primarily through central Africa.
As for a $35,000.00 trophy fee, it is highly unlikely, as they are not occur in quite a few places and are plentiful.
Hope this helps.
Be safe,

Re: Name these animals!
One of the guys here said it was a Kafue Lechwe. I was told that they are not that common here in DRC. Now maybe right down the road in Zambia, I don't know. I Ben here over a year without a single change to go hunting. This make NUTT a depressed boy!

Re: Name these animals!
Outside of kudu, sable, bongo, and impala I am lost when it comes to all the different African antelope. If I ever make it over there for a hunt I'll probably end up shooting something I don't have a licence for....
