This looks like a really good deal.
But I did notice that you have a bit higher price on taking the leopard than what the 'normal' price is.
Would that be for an additional leopard?

Terry Fenn of Chinanga Safaris is currently in the Save Valley Conservancy (Impala ranch, on the Gonarezhou side corner) having just finished a lion, leopard and plains game safari.

They have a lion hitting bait but failed to connect with it before the safari ended. They have seen the lion and indicated it is a mature male. The client has taken buffalo, sable and a few plains game species.

This leaves a lion or leopard and plainsgame safari, (with lion currently on bait) available.
This safari needs to be taken immediately and is for a maximum of ten days.

If someone buys this hunt Terry Fenn will continue to bait in order to attempt to keep the lion in the area..
We do not recommend pursuing this deal you only want leopard and not lion. Although leopard is available Terry has only seen one set of leopard tracks throughout the previous safari.

The details are as follows:

Lion or leopard and plains game safari

1x1 daily rate $500.00 per day x 10 days

The following quota is available
1 Bushpig ($400)
1 Giraffe ($2200) or Hippo ($3000.00)
1 Male impala ($250)
1 Kudu bull ($1200)
2 Zebra ($900) or wildebeest ($800) or 1of each

The above is being sold as a package for $11,500.00 which includes daily rates and trophy fees on the game listed above. Any trophies not taken will not be charged.


If the lion is taken there will be an additional trophy fee of $10,000
Or for leopard $5,000
There will be additional trophy fees for bait animals if needed

This safari is normally $2500.00 per day for an 18 day safari

Transfer fee is $500.00 from Bulawayo or Harare.

Dipping and packing fee is dependent on amount of species taken

4% tax on daily rates
2% tax on trophy fees.

Great offer...Even the slightly higher leopard trophy fee is fine given the daily rates and the fact that lion is on the menu for $500 a day. Would anyone here be upset to shoot a lion AND leopard on the same hunt for $20K...or leopard for $10K plus baits? I didn't think so! Not that both are all that likely on a 10 day hunt but walking out of this hunt with EITHER cat is a good deal IMHO.

By the date on the trail cam, it would seem like a good day to commence hunting. Maybe get to the blind around 3:00 AM?

Terry Fenn was the PH for a friend of ours in 2003 when we were all in the Omay together.

We were so impressed with Terry,we asked Terry to be our PH in Lemco for a 2005 leopard and plainsgame hunt. He accepted and we had a great hunt.

Terry was also our PH in 2007 for an elephant and buffalo hunt in Chirisa.

Exceptional work ethic and enthusiasm.

By all means, irrespective of whether anyone books the hunt, keep feeding the lion!
Should you now cease feeding it and then someone wishes to book at the last minute, the opportunity might be lost.

I made a 2.5 hour trip to Nashville last night to visit Tiffany and Co. and Louis Vuitton and came home with three pretty gift boxes.

Tonight, I ask the family if I can miss Christmas and New Years.

Report (or obituary) to follow. Stay tuned.

I would think the Louis Vuitton and Tiffany gifts would at least upgrade the results of missing Christmas, from an obituary in the newspaper to
"Safari-Lawyer Critically injured in Bizarre domestic incident"? Wink

Maybe you can't put a Lexus in a box, but you sure can put a pine box in a hearse.

No, it's not called a shipping container. Rather, a coffin, I believe.

Dang, Safari-Lawyer! Need a bit of professional courtesy? I have an extra bedroom and some bandages. Big Grin

About 8 years ago I found myself divorced right at Christmas time. A great fellow from here at AR who had never met me invited me to his home for Christmas. I'll never forget it. His and his family's grace was better than any safari.

Trust me, you'll be happier at home than in Zimbabwe.... well, kinda!

You must have a great wife that "allows" you to go so often, albeit, not at Christmas.

I'm sure she deserves a Lexus. Maybe next year!

Now go get a huge elephant this summer!

I've led a charmed life. My partner of 30 years is every bit as enthusiastic about Africa as I am. If I bought her haute coutre gifts she'd ask first if I won the Lotto and second why the money was not going for trophy fees.

What is mature about this Lion?

Secondly this cat will be baited until the client arrives and then shot? And we all condemn canned Lion?

The fact that the PH will be baiting lion before the hunter arrives does not guarantee the lion will remain there for the hunter, because is a wild animal, and thats the usual way wild lion is hunted.
Of course, some of us still prefer to hunt lion tracking them up, but both ways are acceptable for me as "wild animal hunt"
Canned lion hunts has nothing to do with this, canned lions are not "wild" as they are breed in captivity and hunted in a fenced area with no chance at all to escape or move out...Cant you see the difference?
It´s so anoying for me to read something like that coming from another hunter, at least, we are supouse to difference hunt from canned kill...
I still hope some one will take advantage of this discounted hunt, be lucky to shot the lion and have the time to write a full report of the hunt here for us.

best regards

May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick.
And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too.
May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep.
May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip.

Yes Andrew many of us agreed on a thread in the Big Game Hunting section that this lion is young and has no business being shot. Perhaps you'd like to discuss it over there.

Very sorry Brett did not see that and have just got out of the bush.

Spanishunter,

You could keep feeding that Lion till the new year if you have enough meat.

Quite right it is not canned but rather tied to the tree.
