"More than a safari company..."
"Family owned and run..."

Before living in Zambia ( Northern Rhodesia ), David's Grandfather was a forest officer in India where Tiger, Panther, bear and other endemic game was hunted by his Grandparents. His Grandfather had vast areas that he had to patrol and tours of duty would often take 3 months to complete - the mode of transport in those days was by elephant and ox cart!

Occasionally, David’s Grandparents had the task of hunting man-eating Tigers and on one occasion his Grandfather sat over the remains of an Indian worker that had been killed by a Tiger, to wait for the animal to return. He dispatched the Tiger that night bringing a sense of relief and closure to the family of the deceased man.
