African leopard · Zimbabwe
A leopard hunt involves collecting bait, checking it regularly and spending time in the blind. A male may feed for several days, change his time or leave altogether. There are no guarantees.

The experience
Our field reports tell the story plainly: several baits, repeated checks and sometimes many sits before a suitable male gives an opportunity. Allow time for the hunt.

Bait is part of the safari and needs to be planned for. Discuss the bait animals and costs with us before the hunt.
02
The team checks the baits and looks for sign. A feeding leopard still needs to be identified and assessed.
03
Be prepared to sit quietly and to return without seeing the male. Patience is a practical part of this hunt.
