Maneater leopard Gujarat-India

My choice 30-06 180grs SP

Excellent article. Men of the good old days.

Sad to hear this. Prayers for the family.

Beautiful rifle.

Just wanted to understand are theses Trophy animals or cull animals. Cheers.

Unfortunately things have come to a hold unless there's another human kill. Cheers.

Dear Habibsaheb you are absolutely right this is not the man-eater. Moreover I have not yet received the photo of the other leopard which was found dead in a Nala. Unfortunately things are going out of control because of wrong policy and policy makers. God bless us. Cheers.

Folks the hunting expedition has come to a sudden hold after a leopard was hacked to death by the locals and another one found dead in a Nala. Very unfortunate. This happens when you don't have good managers in the forest department. Sad.

Leopard Hunt

Dear Habibsaheb, In the photo which I have posted now it's Mr.Lakhpat Singh Rawat himself and he narrated the story to me . He has shot 55 till now and the most interesting thing about him is he was not a hardcore hunter as I would say it all came over a period of time as he gained experience...

Gentleman the 375 is behind the hunter who's holding the 315. You could very clearly see the bolt . Looks like a model 70 to me. Cheers.

Yes it's an 315. Let me ask about the specific 375 or an original un cropped photo.

Ye Yes the rifle in the photo is a indian 315. The 375 was a borrowed rifle which was probably returned at night. This photo was taken next day morning.
