OT - Dande & Maitengwe - 1 month of hunting!
PH Comment - Alan
Lion was very lucky. Day 2 we were looking for a bait site, when we were charged by an old lion. We drove away and got out and ready and along came the lion. OT made a great shot in the chest and dropped him. Leopard was more difficult. We got 4 males feeding, of which, only one was old. We built a blind and finally got him on the 9th. Big cat! Sat in the blind for 5 days on about day 11. We chased a few different buff. We then followed 2 bulls, and caught up after a hour and OT made a great one shot kill on the bigger of the two. A beautiful old 40” bull. We had lots of fun and chased plains game around for the rest of the trip, before moving to Maitengwe for elephant bull.
