Livingstone Eland

[Back to Game Breeding / Species Page]

Thithombo Game Breeders selected approximately 40 of the top Livingstone cows and heifers among 2 different large herds of 80 to 100 animals. By utilizing our top breeding bulls we believe we can produce outstanding animals for the growing market.

The first herd of 20 cows and heifers were selected during 2012 from a herd of 86 animals which were acquired from Nets Turvey. This herd originated from the Harold family from Thabazimbi and others bought on an auction.

The second herd was acquired during 2014 from Pymat (Pieter Prinsloo), who selected this herd of 20 cows and heifers over a period of 4 years out of 100 animals.

Our first Breeding bull Meneer, was a magnificent animal, who unfortunately died during 2013. Fortunately his genes will continue to live on through his heifers, bull calves and his Son Magiel which we also bought in 2012 when he was 2 and a half years old.

We also acquired a further variety of top genes from Burkea Wild (Sollie Potgieter), Piet Potgieter and Johan Eloff.

We strive towards breeding top animals with supreme genes.
