Folks,

Sean Grant/Shangani River Safaris has a leopard available this year with good dark of the moon dates 18-31 July. The hunt would be conducted on West Nicholson/Jonsyl Ranch South of Bulawayo Zimbabwe.

Sean has many years in the business in Zimbabwe and Mozambique and interestingly he's had the same tracker for 35 years.

Sean took over the area in '23 and has been 100% on leopard both for '23 and '24.

All the usual Zim plains game is available and at a great price.

There are no resident elephant but they are seen frequently. If you see an elephant you'd like to take you can do it on a trophy fee basis with no increase in daily fees.
This is a night hunt but you'll only sit to about 10 PM so the next day is not ruined. The leopards have been coming to feed in daylight often so you might not have to sit in the dark.

Camp is very comfy with private chalets, hot showers, good food and Wifi.

$27,000 all-in to include

I like the all in pricing it makes it sound less like being nickel and dimed to death. So if an elephant wanders by you can take if for only trophy fee?

As for the incidental elephant is this shooting at night or is there time during the day moving about etc? How many hours in the blind? Or if you take the cat early on you can hunt the remaining days?

gunslinger55,

The elephant is strictly an add-on for the $9,100 TF only. The elephant would be incidental during the day. You buy 14 days so you can hunt all 14 regardless of when you take the cat.

You won't sit for the leopard beyond 10 PM.

I shot my leopard (pictured in my avatar) on Jonsyl Farm with PH John Hunt. Supercat-8'1", 180 lbs. He had killed a number of other leopard on the farm and I shot him over a female that he had killed early one morning and came back to feed on that evening.

Very nice!
