quote "Another touchy point you touched on is leopard hunting leopard cannot be hunted by any other way unless you are so lucky to see one in broad daylight the other way is with dogs so which is more ethical ???? "end quote.

Hey of course leopards can be hunted without artificial light---blind/stand hunting is an acceptable method during evening/late afternoon on a tree bait but i dont ever want to meet someone that has proudly taken a leopard in the light and proclaims himself to be a great hunter by taking one of the "big five" in this manner.A former hunting partner took two in Africa using his 7mm mag during daylight hours so can we all.
If it is ok to take leopards in this way why not wait till dark and sit on a waterhole with a bloody bright light and shoot the other four of the big five and make a real hunter out of oneself?.
Hunting big cats with dogs is to me far more ethical than using a light--man has used his faithful friends for thousands of years as a hunting companion and the leopard has its chances of escape during a hunt not so in a light from a blind.I understand the need to get the clients wish list filled in a very few days and to extract trophy fees etc to make a living but shooting animals without hunting for them is just that ---


Hey Joe thats a gracious offer you made there mate and its reciprocal you know. Alaska is i suppose the place where i have set my sights on since i first started reading of it in my 40 year old copies of "Outdoor Life Mag" and other mags.I find the idea of a long walk or sore arse ride into true wilderness areas something to truly wish for in a place like Alaska with its incredible beauty and the game it has.

Get off the chair away from the desk and get out in the bush and enjoy life.
