Hi Ann,

Yes, PHASA did get involved and although I'm not sure if it's been finalised yet the offender will probably lose his membership, which actually doesn't mean squat. Parks Board also got involved, but I don't know the outcome of that......either way, I don't suppose it will stop the offender doing business.

If you do still want to try for the Leopard maybe you could do a deal where you pay the standard plains game daily rate and a higher trophy fee if you get the cat in the salt. When you see the licence you'll notice it has the registered outfitter's or landowners name on it and not yours.........and that's what causes most if not all of the problems.

To give you some idea of the difference in success rates of the different countries, last year every single Lion bait we hunt in TZ had Leopard spoor around it and scratch marks in the tree within 24 hours. The year before we took 4 Leopards out of the same tree over the season. The tree was within walking distance of the camp. The year before that we hung a single bait in a tree and had a strike (and shot the cat) the same night.

In SA I'd bet if you hang 6 baits you'll be lucky to get a strike on one of them (over a 2 week period).
