Hunting Tanzania... Kilombero Kronicles 9; Hunt of the Season.
There is always a hunt that stands out among the rest for one or various reasons and not necessarily due to success rate, though most tend to be. This one was due the proportion of time to success rate - 17 animals in 8 days! Not much more can be added to that fact. And I will repeat myself again... it is a wild concession in Tanzania without game fences or game management. Just good old anti-poaching and ethical hunting practices. This was the bag;

George was a returning client who had already hunted polar bear and rhino earlier in 2009 and added the above to his list - quite a feat in one year! Just the lion eluded us, but one needs more than a week to hunt the king!
On a safari like this, there is likely to be a bad shot and unfortunately on this one it was with the Zebra, which got away. Hope you enjoy the photos...
