LIMPOPO LEOPARD
Phillip of INTREPID SAFARIS (AR member) ask me to post these pics of a big tom currenly on bait.
The bait is a qtr of a Zebra...best guess the cat is around 170 lbs... Phillip's ranch is NW of Alldays RSA, about 2mi from the Limpopo river.

Thanks for posting uncle Bob, it is one of the biggest ones that I've seen around over here. He started feeding on A Zebra that one of my clients shot and we only found the next day.

Aaron...unfortunately I'm not the hunter this year. My wife's passing pushed my hunt to next year.
But I've booked with Phillip for '14...IF Phillip gets a permit.
Some other lucky hunter is headed towards this big boy.

Sorry for that! I wish you extra good luck next year. A big leopard is a special trophy.

Knowing leopards like I do, I'd say about 3 minutes after the client arrives in camp on his 14 day safari, this big tom will have had his fill to last another month without feeding !!!!!

Just saying ...............!!
