Leopard hunt… wait for it…

[Bullet Safaris]

Here is a short clip on leopard hunting - thought everyone might enjoy this. I have been trying for a couple years to get this 'shot' from the in the tree perspective...
Location: Tanzania

I think I was as surprised as the leopard. Damn near dropped my phone. Happy I didn't wet myself.

Awwwhh...........kitty done fell outa da tree! How the heck did you get that leopard to come out in the daytime? I always thought you had to hunt them in the middle of the night?

(and maybe our local fire dept. can employ similar techniques for getting house cats out of trees

Lots of work and luck to get that on tape.

Thanks for sharing that.

 

[Buff-Buster]

Awesome! Thanks for posting Nathan.

Great video.

So many cut it off as soon as the shot is done. I love how it stays for a few seconds in the spot where the leopard was . Something about the finality of it all I guess.

Lots of meat and time!
We have more daytime cat activity in Tanzania than any other place I've hunted. That video was from a trail camera in the tree- we also have the shot from the blind with a regular camera.
We guided 6 leopard hunts last year and killed 6 nice cats in daylight hours. The areas are big and remote, this one is approx 2,300 sq km or around 1,500 sq miles I guess. They don't know people and have not been persecuted. No villages, no cattle, no dogs...just us and an occasional poacher!
