May 10 to May 24 2015 Emirates- Airline Travel with guns-agent Anton Le Roux-PH One on One Safaris-outfitter Limpopo South Africa This was a hunt advertised here on AR that we had been looking for. We booked it in 2013 for 2014 but needed an extension, which Anton graciously allowed. This is a great leopard area but tags have been hard to obtain. We hunted the small cats like one would hunt leopards. We shot baits and got in the blinds in late afternoon. Apparently, I snore. Animals taken were genet, civet, serval, bushpig, brown hyena, jackals and porcupine. Animal not taken was a caracal. Photos not working for me-will try later as an edit. This was a fun hunt for me and my wife enjoyed it as well. We took a day trip to a local National Park and enjoyed that as well. Accomadations were great and very comfortable. Your non hunting companion will love it. http://s1373.photobucket.com/u....jpg.html?sort=3&o=6 tvandiepen@farmersagent.com ...I say that hunters go into Paradise when they die, and live in this world more joyfully than any other men. -Edward, duke of York ". . . when a man has shot an elephant his life is full." ~John Alfred Jordan "The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt.

Wow cool ide. I'd love to see the pics. Pity no caracal - my favourite of the small cats. "When the wind stops....start rowing. When the wind starts, get the sail up quick." | |||

Genet, civet, serval; Reads like my wish list, CONGRATULATIONS! I'll be trying for my caracal in about five weeks on the East Cape but want to hunt as many of the small cats/preadtors as I can. Hope to see pictures! | |||

Kudos on a nice hunt and you left yourself a lead in for another hunt for Caracal. Well done! I have had thoughts of a small cat hunt over dogs but haven't found an outfitter that would be a good fit yet. Suggestions anyone? All We Know Is All We Are | |||

I am not a dog guy but Anton may know a ph who does dog hunts. He posted here above as one on one safaris-pm him.

Really nice serval! That animal has been #1 on my wish list for my last 5 hunts. When I finally did see one, I was told it was not on quota. The hunter the week before me had shot one, and they only got one per year on license where I was hunting in the Zambezi Valley. | |||
