It's usually to feed the staff..... we don't really need to bait our Lions much as there are so many of them in the area. We only resort to baiting the Lions if we haven't managed to shoot one by about day 10 or 12 of the safari, and by then the client is well into shooting other animals. So we can always use those...... when we have a client in camp, we also ask them to do the meat shooting as they'll enjoy it more and we'll get to see how they perform.

Can I ask if you're having the rifle built by a local gunmaker?...... and is that sort of thing expensive over there?
