    Franck Maes a Professional Hunter with Unexpected Talent


    Professional Hunter Franck Maes with an incredible Elephant hunted in Tanzania, with tusks measuring a 2.44 meters (8 feet) in length.

    I thought that I would share these paintings and hunting pictures that one of our member posted in the photo gallery.

    Franck Maes is a renowned and respected PH in Africa as well as an African wildlife artist, a rare combination of skills. He shows his love for Africa, its' wildlife and people in everything he does.

    Although he is French, Franck Maes was born in Brazzaville, Congo in 1962 and spent much of his childhood there as well as in Cameroon and Kenya. It was a hardship for him to go back to France to complete his studies. He was only nineteen when he returned to Africa to become a professional hunter, which is more than a job to him, it is his passion.

    How I Made The lion Roar & Other Hunting Adventures
    by Paul Kruger


    Stephanus Johannes Paulus Kruger (10 October 1825 - 14 July 1904), better known as Paul Kruger and affectionately known as Uncle Paul (Afrikaans: "Oom Paul" ) was State President of the South African Republic (Transvaal).

    How the Ex-President made the Lion Roar
    IT is of course quite impossible that I should be able to tell to-day how many wild beasts I have killed. It is not to be expected—especially as I have not been present at a big hunt for nearly fifty years—that I should remember the exact number of lions, buffaloes, rhinoceroses, ...
