The Director is currently travelling.

Tapper2I was one of the hunters, along with Larry01 that was shafted by Mulla in 2007. It was lucky for him that he didn't show up in camp as I think the problem might have been solved by the croc's. His camp staff was not happy with him, either.
Does anyone know what has happened to Fronterhouse, his U.S. agent?

Booth #9151. They do not seem to have a Web Site, so I don't have any contact details. If anyone can confirm this please advise?
I advise anyone not to book with this man until they research Usangu Safaris and learn about all the deposit money the Clients lost to him in 2006 & 2007

Mwatisi Safaris is solely owned by SHERDELL-O-SHERDELL.He and Zahir "dislike"each other tremendously.Sherdell was a "PH"subcontractor for Usangu and was never paid for the last few safaris.I was one of the last clients in 2007.Sherdell was my "PH"in 1999,2007,and will be again next week for 21 days.I wil help clarify any Usangu ? I can. Jim D of TX

Bwana BundukiSherdell has also been a guest in my home more than once and has denied any wrongdoing. BUT he is linked by family ties as he and Abdul grew up together. Sorry Jim, but your information may or may not be accurate as this is 2009. This business makes for strange bedfellows.

I know the family ties of Zahir,Abdul,and Sherdell.No need to be sorry my information is very "acurate".I helped Sherdell form Mwatisi Safaris after he and I were swindled.He is a
very honorable man.
I will gladly answer any "Question"you might have about Sherdell. Jim D

Bwana BundukiJim,
I think the obvious question that should not need asking is whether Zahir Mulla (banned from DSC, SCI and the USA) is in cahoots, business with, associated with or whatever with Sherdell Omar Sherdell and his Safari company???
If you are looking to defend Sherdell, you may want to start here. By the way the printed material of Usangu Safari's listed Sherdell as a "Director". Still have a copy if you would like to see. I had considered Sherdell a friend at one time and he has told me after the fact that he was "only a PH".

larrys01I just looked at Usangu Safaris on the net and it appears they are still in business. Also they have on there site are links to Gracy Travel and MedJet. However clicking on the Color Brochure link it list Zahir as well as Bill Fronterhouse as US Represenitive? Not sure if that is correct. As for any associates of Zahir's, I figure a person is the same as the company he keeps.

shakariHe might be banned from the conventions but I'll bet a pound to a pinch of the brown stuff that he'll have at least one poor sucker of an agent representing his outfit at each show.
Quite how that can be prevented, I don't know.

larryshoresI just got back from 3 weeks in Africa. I have looked at my e mails. I did NOT get a response from either party that I forwarded the information to. Very disappointing, especially about the TZ wildlife offical.

Had a great Safari with Sherdell.He is the sole owner of Mwatisi Safaris with no ties to his former emp.I will continue to help Sherdell in building His company.Zahir could end up with his liscense and a concession as a result of the reposession of Usangu concessions 2 years before his contract expired with the govt.All we can do is warn fellow hunters about the past and look forward to the future.SCI may have sanctions in place but European com. may not.
