So far, I have only had the chance to see Zimbabwean and Mozambican trackers at work. The Zim Pair I observed were quite impressive. There were moments early on, where I would watch them try to make sense of a labyrinth of trails in the matted grass, in the back of my mind I thought they must be putting on a show for the foreigner. Surely, they were just wandering through the bush with hopes of bumping a buffalo. Our senior Zim tracker later tried to teach me a few things, but mostly I just watched him with the expression of a dog being taught calculus.
Thinking back, and on future trips, I’m wondering what other tracking cultures that you have been impressed by or learned from. Experiencing other cultures is for me a big draw when planning a trip. Would love to hear this groups thoughts on the most impressive trackers.
