YOU BE THE JUDGE

Game Trackers Africa - Rockwood Conservation is often confronted with the question – “why such a difference in price between you and most of the market?”  The answer is short – “a quality experience, age and age related trophy quality”!   We at GTARC do not hunt bulls that are younger than 12 years old, preferably 15 years and older.  This policy guarantees our clients on a continuous basis of superior trophy quality exceeding the minimum requirements for SCI medal qualification. The focus is on mature and old bulls that have been used in our conservation program and/or bulls which will not contribute towards our genetic diversity objectives.

Age estimation on Rhino is not easy, however a good starting point is to look at some external visual indicators:

• Body size – shoulder height min 5 foot;
• Size of the hump;
• Head size; the size/ length relationship between the front and back horn;
• The gap between front and back horn basis’s – the smaller the gap, the older;
• The circumference of the both horn basis’s and then how the back horn is shaped - worn.

DO THE RIGHT THING- LETS PRACTICE WHAT WE PREACH AND EDUCATE THE IGNORANT –

“DO NOT HUNT IMMATURE ANIMALS.”

“The Bitterness of Poor Quality Remains Long after the Sweetness of a Low Price Is Forgotten.”
