2) Kazakhstan has become quite a major hunting destination, as it has vast areas of wilderness and a pretty effective wildlife programme. There are a number of international outfitters operating there, with the main trophies being Asiatic Elk (Maral) and Ibex, but also some sheep and bear hunting.
My personal reason for going was a hunting trip to the Altai back in 1990 (for Asiatic Roe), where I first saw the enormous Elk trophies. I swore then that if I ever returned it would be to try for an Elk.



Kazakhstan is near the top of my list of elk hunts I'd like to go on.

Few years back I guided a trio of Germans/Austrian who were elk hunting loonies, they had pics and great stories of hunting there.
