Never heard of it. Ask Aaron Neilson. I'm sure he will know or know who does.

Rhyme of the Sheep Hunter
May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick.
And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too.
May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep.
May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip.
-Seth Peterson

Frostbit,

The link contains Dr. White's e-mail address and according to the article the final draft will be completed in 2011.

Thank you again for the salmon, it was the hit of the holiday season.

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

Guys - I have a preliminary copy of it already, but Dr. White is waiting to publish it, until she feels its more complete.

The preliminary copy has 47 separate lion tooth/DNA samples, plus photos of each one. Very interesting to see the difference from the Luangwa Lions vs the Kafue lions!! Plus to see what an excellent job the Zambian Professional hunters are doing at harvesting mature lions. Exactly 85% of the 47 lions, are aged at 5 yrs or older!!

I am working on a big article/facts/opinion paper regarding lions. I will be posting it soon, and it expounds on Zambia a bit more, plus other things as well.

Peter & others - Remember one thing as it pertain to this "book". Outside the Serengeti Eco-system, its pretty WORTHLESS!! So unless they start letting us hunt the Serengeti, we'll have to rely on "REGIONAL" guides, such as the one being worked on by Dr. White. Thus the reason its called a "Regional guide to Zambian lions", as it pertains only to Zambia.

Even if it isn't the Lord's feline bible I'd still say it's pretty helpful for someone that has no idea about lions.

The principles of age estimation it covers can be applied to most regions, not only the Serengeti ecosystem.

It can be applied to Northern Tanzania (Maasailand ecosystem), Western Tanzania (Kigosi/Myuwozi/Malagarasi ecosystems), Central Tanzania (Ruaha/Rungwa/Usangu ecosystem), South-Western Tz (Rukwa/Chunya ecosystem)and even many parts of the Southern region (Selous/Niassa ecosystem). tu2

Bwana - Absolutely disagree! Dr. White's REGIONAL guide in Zambia, shows very distinctive, visual, differences in the lions between the Luangwa Valley vs the Kafue, for example.

The same will hold true from region to region in TZ, and especially as you cross into other countries, etc.

Agree. There are some areas that only produce small spotty mane less cats. Other characteristics are big floppy paws and over sized ears. It is very difficult for some to distinguish this variety from your average Lion cub.

I won't comment on Zambia but with TZ regions, I am quite convinced that criteria applies consistantly. Agree to disagree if you want, no problem. beer
