My first safari (plains game) is behind me and, yes, I got the Africa bug and am starting to plan for the next trip. I could be perfectly happy with more plains game. However, I would like to add a DG animal on my next trip. However, I'm not sure which one to try for first.
I have eliminated elephant and rhino from consideration and hippo and croc don't get me particularly excited. I am most inclined to go for either cape buffalo or a lion. I'd love to take a leopard, but time starts to become a problem with them. I figure that I can go for a max of two weeks and I've been told that the odds are only about 50% for taking a leopard in that much time.
I would appreciate any advice that you folks with experience in such matters care to offer.
