    Sorry ETXTacoma didn't see your post, prices are as follows

    $13,500 gold metal bull
    $8000 for a cull hunt
    $3000 for Asian wild cattle, and I do mean will
    Dingo, boar, and kangaroo are all $650 a piece.
    Skin, and pack is $400, we take it to our exporter in darwin.

    If you want to add helicopter to the package, it's $3500 added. But that's if you want to fly sun up to sun down all 7 days, plus I pick you up and drop you off at airport in a helicopter.

    But don't let these prices scare you, each trip has its own price, and if you are not hunting they drop considerably

    Oh and around $20k for a big saltwater croc, but it takes months for the permit to go through. And it won't be a healthy one. He will be sick or have a leg missing. Or be old with no teeth left

    That was going to be my question....if I had no interest in hunting - but wanted to do the helicopter thing (going to those remote locations - etc) how much would that typically run? The fishing part sounded really cool!

    Oh lord - I'm sure she will catch hell for that if it gets out. (which I think is ridiculous - for the record)

    Well I can't say for sure I would have to get with the boss. But usually if a guy books a hunt, his wife comes for free. So it wouldn't be much I don't think. I'll ask.

    No big deal - was just curious! I have no idea if this is something @trekker would be interested in. It does sound awesome though!

    Nah they aren't hunting, we are taking them from Melbourne up to camp the long way, going to see a bunch of sites. Then the will fly back out of darwin.

    Her dad used to be, but now that he is older he doesn't like tromping through the brush as much. Now he wants to go travel and see everything.

    I was just being silly since multiple people mentioned that brand...

    but yeah - just waiting on a final answer so I can move forward with that plan ASAP. Feeling cautiously optimistic about it!

    Love mine for the used price I got it for, now I need accessories. They sit pretty high on the taco but look even better on the runners imo.
    Juan has one on their runner I believe. We need pictures.

    Haha the three big prices also include transport, food, adult beverages, 6 day stay at camp, and a few meals in town
