Leopard attacks on game farm
August 28, 2011
Johannesburg - A husband and wife guiding team were attacked by a leopard at a game farm near Polokwane on Sunday morning, paramedics said.
A foreign trophy hunter had shot and injured a leopard late on Saturday afternoon, and a tracking party set out to find the animal, said ER24 spokesperson Andre Visser.
Instead, the injured leopard stalked and attacked the group, at 09:00 on Sunday.
The leopard darted for the trophy hunter, but the male guide, believed to be in his mid thirties, stepped in front of his client.
The leopard mauled the man's left shoulder, arm, and abdomen, while his wife received multiple lacerations to her arm.
The couple were airlifted to the Polokwane provincial hospital, but were later transferred to MediClinic Limpopo for further treatment.
