Gary hopkins/KLIPRAAL TRAVEL & SAFARIS has a leopard on offer on the Midlands Rhino Conservancy of Zimbabwe at a price I have not seen since the 90's. I hunted this area several years ago and the game is plentiful and accommodations plus food are excellent. Among a good bag of other game I took a 42.5" sable there.

There are several openings in the schedule but Gary is suggesting mid to late May, June and July as ideal to take advantage of the moon phase.

SBT . . . paging SBT . . . please pick up the white courtesy phone.

Are there no buffalo in that area? Just curious....

Is this a high fenced area Mark? If so, what area size??

Nakihunter,

I don't believe there are any buffalo on the Conservancy. There weren't any when I hunted there.

Matt,

Since there are black rhino there if for no other reason the area needs to be fenced but Gary tells me now the Conservancy totals 100,000 acres and he can hunt all of it.

Mark

That's a hell of a deal Mark, especially since it's not a cancellation price and you can go on your schedule! If the area is good for cats, this is a no brainer.

Thanks for the page Will, but I'm already booked for May with SSG. If the offer had been made when I was looking, I would have taken it.

Scott,

I can even offer the sable you wanted.

Mark

Mark,

If I had only been born rich and handsome instead of just handsome I would be all over this.

I said this exact same thing to my mother years ago. She said it's a bitch when you find out you were cheated out of both.

Tim,

It must be terrible to be you

Some days yes, some days no. But I think I'll make it anyway
