in tonight's street talk commentary, george knapp looks into the safari club's posted agenda. ((george knapp)) >the safari club is in las vegas this week, offering fun for the whole family, that is, if your whole family likes to kill animals. mostly, it seems, the fun is reserved for dads....dads with wads of money to spend. the annual convention is a huge money maker for the safari club because they auction off the chance to kill all kinds of animals all over the world. trophy hunters are not the same as the average joe with a hunting license. based on the costs, i'd guess a lot of them are bankers, ceo's, lawyers, and physicians. valued at 52,000 dollars...if you want to kill deer in new zealand, that will run you about 90,000... a cape buffalo in tanzania costs about the same as a sable in south africa...right around 58 grand....and if you'd like to gun down bears in alaska...both brown and black, that's worth a cool 80 g's. chump change to a wall street guy who wants a fierce head on his wall. oh, you can also bid on a 100,000 dollar pair of mammoth tusks, but what's the f
