Wow. Knew nothing of it. Beard has lived a very interesting life. Beard and PH Terry Mathews were filming a show for ABC Tv in 1987 when Mathews was gored by a female black rhino. Beard’s actions were apparently a contributing factor in the charge.

When I'm ready to go, pack a bag of gunpowder up my ass and strike a fire to my pecker, until I squeal like a boar. Yours truly , Milan The Boarkiller - World according to Milan PS I have big boar on my floor...but it ain't dead, just scared to move...
Man should be happy and in good humor until the day he dies... Only fools hope to live forever “ Hávamál”

I had the pleasure of meeting him once at an art gallery in Manhattan where he was showing his work. That evening I also met J.A.Hunters grandson and the son of another famous old time PH. Beard also had a home in Kenya, so guess that was the connection.
He came from money and led a full life I guess!
I suppose a bit like a Hemingway or Robert Ruark character, hunted a fair bit but wrote more if you know what I mean! The romantic time of Safari, travel and adventure to foreign lands and wild places, people and animals, all history now.
