The number below is not an estimate from an old brochure — it is the live listed trophy-fee position for cape eland 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. Cape Eland 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 largest antelope on earth walks like a ghost: a ton of animal that clicks as it strides and still vanishes off a track you were sure of. Eland bulls are trotting machines that cover 40 kilometres in a morning, which makes an eland hunt the plains-game equivalent of a buffalo track — long, patient spoor work with a heart-in-mouth final approach on the blue-grey bull with the thick dewlap and rubbed-bare forehead.
