Chewore South Not sold!

The Saga over the sale of Chewore South is ongoing. The consortium that initially bought it at the auction failed to pay (US$12 million is alot of shilling in any mans language!), so it was offered to the second highest bidder - Who had until Thursday night to come up with the loot. Parks are unhappy that nobody else was even close. No 3 backed out of the aution when the price reached equivalent of US$4 million, so as of today, it looks as though the area will have to be re-auctioned!

Thanks for the update. I'm not surprised at this and thought the auction might have to be redone. You never know in Africa how they will handle that stuff.

Great! Perhaps Duckworth and company have another shot at it.

For the first 15 days of my last Safari I hunted Cheowore South, staying at Westerns Safari Camp. I was hunting with Brooklands Safaris.

They ran a nice good camp.

I took a buff, zebra, baboon, bull elephant, and a lion. Could have taken a leopard but he was on a lion bait, and we did not want to spook a lion that had been feeding and might be nearby.

It was a great hunt. The only down side was the Tetse flys, there was a LOT of them.

I hope the 3 prior companies regain the hunting rights there, as they are in the business for the long haul.

"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."

Absolutely great news!!! I will be there in late Oct early Nov. Can't wait to hear the speculation. It would be great if John Rosenfels, Rodger Whitall, and Barrie Duckworth could keep that concession.

Ganyana,
Please keep us posted. I thought that consortium of folks would have problems as I metioned in an earlier post.
