Description
Hunter will need to be prepared to be hiking in unfenced wild African wilderness. Hunts may take place at night as leopards are much more active. Crepuscular behavior, defined as primarily active during twilight best describes the Leopards heightened periods of activity, although a stricter nocturnal movement is more commonly adopted in areas of greater persecution. This adds to the challenging nature of hunting the big cat as sign and scent is often aged by the time daylight permits effective tracking. Weather can be rainy so rain gear is a must. Hunter must be prepared for moderate hiking in the dark with durable and comfortable hiking boots with a good flashlight and headlamp. Outfitter will provide lodging and meals and all field transportation for the hunt. Outfitter will help prep the skin and skull for export.
