About this listen
In last night’s PH Journals podcast, I unpacked one of the biggest recent shifts in African game regulations: the Bontebok has officially been removed from CITES Appendix II.
In this episode, I break down: • What the CITES delisting actually means • How this affects the South African hunting industry • Why export becomes easier — but not completely unrestricted • Whether Bontebok trophies can now be imported into the United States • The difference between CITES rules and U.S. ESA regulations • Why hunters should still be cautious about assuming “permit-free” imports • What this could mean for conservation, game farms, and future management
This is a crucial moment for landowners, outfitters, PHs, and international hunters — and the implications go far beyond one species. If you want to understand where the industry is heading, this episode is a must-watch.
