This is slightly relevant to this thread. Thought that it might be of interest to some. From the BBC "Why leopard attacks have become election issue in India" BBC News - Why leopard attacks have become election issue in India From the article: "We caught one of the leopards which killed two...

There were two major companies that merged. For the resulting company, they chose the name of JPT. In most of the world that worked fine, however in French-speaking countries it was a bit of a problem. You see, in French JPT sounds like "J'ai p�" Translation: "I farted." They changed the...

Thanks. I found a case that is exactly what I need. It was in the back of my mind (since I have about 6 months till my hunt) but this thread reminded me to deal with it sooner than later, so double thanks.

In all the hunts I've been on, I have only run into one hunter who was a lawyer - or at least, only one who admitted to being a lawyer. Why? Do people with guns make them nervous?

Bobby, Welcome to AH. You can learn a lot from the experts on this site. I'm not one of them (although occasionally I pretend to be one). :bonk:

Say Man, Welcome to AH - you'll find folks who have a lot of experience in African hunting. They'll have the answers you need. If they don't have the answers, you must not need to know. :) One trip or 2? That's an easy one. The odds say that if you make one trip, you'll make another...

You need a checking account that no one else has access to. That doesn't solve the real problem (incompetence), but is a temporary workaround. I had an accountant who was terrible. Unfortunately, he quit to take another job and denied me the satisfaction of firing him.

It seems like the local police would be a good starting point. At least they can give you some info. First, they may look at it and say that there's a big difference between saying someone "should be shot" and "will be shot". Or, they may look at it and see it as a threat. Second, if they...

James, All excellent points. Those prices are very good. If I wasn't already booked, I'd be calling you. BTW - I've been told (warned) that the captive bred females are the most dangerous of all lion options.
