They are about 15 years old now so time and dust got the best of them.

IT SEEMS That THE FOLLOWING CLOUDED LEOPARDS ARE NOR 'REAL' LEOPARDS OR EVEN A SUB-SPECIES,BUT IN A WHOLE OTHER CLASS OF THEIR OWN!
Any vet,biologist etc. out there?

First Tom for the season with a total of 170hours + in the blind this was the reward, 2 more to come from Mozambique, will keep you guys updated.

My best always

Jaco, you are obviously an authority on leopard hunting. What do you feel is the best shot to take on a leopard? High shoulder ?, or behind the shoulder heart/lung region. I know this is an old thread but hoping you can give me some insight, as you know I ll be hunting them soon. Thanks. Johnnyblues.

johnnyblues, I would shoot for the lungs. If you miss this target exactly, you will probably be alright, but mess up the high shoulder shot and you are most likely going to have problems. A animal can not live if it can't breath

Yes sir I agree. There are some good pictures on shot placement on the site. I've studied them and agree if I split the body in half and hold just behind the shoulder very similarly as shooting a whitetail I should catch lungs and possibly the top of the heart.

Another Great Cat for Spear Safaris. We managed to secure a standby Leopard Tag in Limpopo and Ray was the taker on the Hunt. Ray was lucky enough to bag this great Old Tom during the safari. Well done Ray.
