Leopard are my favorite animal to hunt. In Namibia, leopard conservation has been very successful. There are strict quotas on hunting leopards for export, and tags are limited. I never book your hunt until I have a confirmed tag for you. If I have a tag available, I will be glad to talk with you about the details of a leopard hunt.

Leopard hunting safaris, the way it should be
When I lead a leopard safari, leopard is my priority for you for the entire hunt.
We start by checking baits first thing in the morning, so there is time to build a blind if needed. If there’s no hit, you can hunt other animals, relax or shoot more bait. The last two and a half hours of daylight we sit in the best blind.
I know the cats in my areas. I learn their tracks and their territories. I know which areas need ground baits, which areas need hanging baits. Some cats tend to feed lower on the ground, some feed in trees because of other ground predators.
Pre-baiting helps for 2 to 3 days before you land in Namibia. You can’t keep big males on bait too long, so I don’t normally pre-bait longer.
