Interesting. OK, I can certainly see the association of camo with military, paramilitary and insurrectionist mayhem. South Africa has had enough of that.
And the PH and client were able to walk towards at least the black wildebeest, closely trailed by the cameraman, with the client right behind the PH. The herd - it looked to be no more then 20 animals - was staring at them. If you can fool them that easily, they deserve to be dopeybeest instead of wildebeest. And eaten.

Most of the chatter of whether an animal was a trophy pertained to horn and boss size and quality. One you shoot your dopeybeest, does the camp eat it?
Is it normal practice to skin the dope, and take it home? It'd be a shame to leave it to feed hyenas. Then again, they might be as tough as they are dopey (boy, I like that joke.)
