So I'm sitting on the couch trying to get over the flu of all things. Bored to tears, and I was reading about the exploits of Sir Jim Corbett. I went back and watched the Rigby video detailing the making of the tribute rifle. Of interest, I came across this BBC video about the Maneating Leopard of Rudrapryag. It is long, approximately 50 minutes but if your sick and looking for something to watch, this is pretty good albeit somewhat dramatized. My apologies if it's already been posted on here before…

It's still surreal this really happened, as well as all of the other serial man-eating incidents, but they still go on even today…

Most of my hunts are solo — just me, my rifle, and a good map. Sometimes I tag along with an old buddy for a week in Zimbabwe or South Africa, but more often than not, it’s just me.
Big fan of classic hunting — bolt-action rifles, old-school tracking, and taking the time to really be in the moment.
Just did a podcast, check it out if interested!
