Leopard situation in South Africa

Believe me I know. I hope it all comes together otherwise it's buffalo and plains game.
 
Johnny,

Back to Namibia for the cat (if it all comes to fruition)?
 
I too am monitoring closely and if a chance comes up for 2017 hoping to take it
 
Yes sir.
 
Sadly, I probably won't have the chance until 2018. Hopefully import is still allowed at that time. ...

Man I hope so for everyone who wants to hunt them.

In all seriousness it will be 2018 or 2019 for me. I am headed to the Yukon in 10 1/2 months and not sure what happens after that. If the export band happens leopard will go to the back of the list but I will hunt one eventually.

I hope it happens for you Johnny, I loved your daily reports. However, it is hard to feel bad for you if he doesn't get a tag with buffalo and plains game as the replacement. (y)(y)(y)

Your right Mike, but man to have a life size leopard in my collection has been a life long dream.

You and me have the same dream, I already have a place picked out in my house where I want the mount to go. If the export band happens I will change my screen name to "CantImportTheDream". I do hope your guy gets a tag!

The other side is Trump gets elected and I think that will buy us 4 years.
 
I'm keeping my fingers crossed on all this.

Make that +2
 
plain english please,can you still hunt leopard in zim or namibia now as long as you have a cities permit?
 
Absolutely
 
Plenty of leopards in the East Cape, I had one eating in a tree regularly on my last trip, less than 1/4 mile from camp.
