The number below is not an estimate from an old brochure — it is the live listed trophy-fee position for black wildebeest across farms on Safari Hunts, and it updates automatically as outfitters adjust their price lists.
Live trophy-fee range across 4 active Safari Hunts listings — updates automatically as farms change their prices.
Add the trophy fee to your daily-rate block: rate × nights × hunters. Black Wildebeest hunts sit comfortably inside a standard 5–7 night safari, and the species pairs naturally with other plains game to spread the daily-rate cost across several trophies. Deposits on Safari Hunts are 50% into escrow, balance 90 days before arrival, trophy fees settled at the farm for animals taken.
The white-tailed gnu is a South African endemic saved from extinction by hunters and landowners — down to a few hundred animals a century ago, now thriving on highveld farms precisely because it pays its way. Bulls pronk, buck and cartwheel across open grassland like nothing else on earth, and hunting one means beating the flat-country sentinel system with distance shooting and patience. The forward-hooked boss and white tail make an unmistakable trophy.
