Shooting Licences. 1 1 7 



The item giving thirty head includes the game which is 

 not specified, such as waterbuck, hartebeest, bushbuck, 

 reedbuck, impala, inyala, oribi, steinbuck, and duiker. 



Carnivorous animals, such as lion, leopard, hyaenas, wild 

 dogs, cats of various varieties, otter, and all birds excepting 

 egrets can be shot in any quantity, and all that is required 

 for shooting them is the ordinary gun licence necessary 

 for permission to carry a weapon of any kind. 



NORTH-EASTERN RHODESIA. 



It is probable that the game laws of the above territory 

 may be changed to make them similar to the country known 

 as North-Western Rhodesia, but this, I think, would be a 

 mistake, for North-Eastern is not so often visited by sports- 

 men as no railway touches the country. 



At present I believe that the game laws are as follows : 



ALLOWANCE ON 25 GAME LICENCE. 



Four elephant (ivory not less than nib. weight for each tusk). 



Five rhinoceros. 



Four gnu (wildebeest). 



Three zebra (males only). 



Eland and all other game, except giraffe and other animals and 

 birds which are protected. 



The taking out of a 25 licence includes the ordinary charge of los. 

 for a gun licence. 



ALLOWANCE ON 2 LICENCE. 



Buffalo. 



Roan antelope. 



Sable antelope. 



Kudu. 



Hippopotamus (six only) 



Lechwe. 



Reedbuck. 



Waterbuck. 



Hartebeest. 



Oribi. 



Duiker. 



Klipspringer. 



Situtunga. Warthog. 



Puku. 

 Impala. 



Bushpig. 

 Bushbuck, etc. 



There seems to be no limit of the animals mentioned, 

 except the hippo, of which six are allowed.
