Time to live? The speed of Africa's dangerous game

Th

This chart should also show weapon of choice. 48" tusks, 36" horn, 5" claws, razor teeth lol.
Or 5” claw on a Cassowary’s foot? I wonder how fast this bird could be upon a person and disemboweling them? Not in Africa maybe, but in countries with hapless hunters out for a stroll looking for big game and not sensing their possible demise from a flightless bird. Ha! Ha! Ha!
 
Looks about right to me. My leopard was about 40 yards away and the whole affair was over in 2 seconds!

Preparing for the adventure of a lifetime. Looking forward to my 2026 Africa hunt with Van Wijk Safaris in South Africa.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
