THIS IS THE BOOK:

DEADLY ENCOUNTERS

Incidents of hunters, trackers, PHs, and innocent bystanders seriously getting "hammered" and not infrequently killed by a dangerous-game animal crop up each year, and the trend toward the hunter becoming the prey seems to be clearly on the increase. This fact stands in strange counterpoint to what is actually happening in the international big-game hunting world, for it's a fact that there are fewer and fewer dangerous animals that can be hunted today. Tigers, Asian rhinos, Asian elephants, gaurs, and many other dangerous game animals are now consigned to our hunting past, for no legal hunting for them has existed for decades.

There are still enough dangerous game animals left, however, for people to get scratched, bitten, or stomped regularly. African lions are still hunted, even if far less often than before. African elephants are still locally plentiful, but far fewer of them are sport hunted now than ever before. And as for African rhinos, the black species is almost not hunted and the white variety is considered far less dangerous than its cousin. Even so, accidents happen, and people die or are maimed when a lion, an elephant, or a rhino decides to take an instant dislike to you.
