I love the Wild of the African Bush that comes though in these photos,



The "Dagga" Boy as some of us call it.
Cape Buffalo



"Dagga" is the Zulu word for Mud, old bulls once kicked out of the herd are referred to as Dagga boys. The bulls roll in it to protect themselves from the sun and the insects

Those shoes look like converse all-stars.

That's a nice Kudu, That is a dream hunt. I would love to harvest a KuDu. Now if I could just win the lottery I could go a try my luck at a Kudu.

Fred Bear did kill a Tiger Yes.

That picture of him with the Stone Sheep has always been one of my absolute favorites. Good stuff Andy.

The chap you see alongside Fred in these Photo's is an African PH by the name Wally Johnson.
If you have an interest you can read a book about him titled "The Last Ivory Hunter: The Saga of Wally Johnson" By Peter Capstick
Its filled with some great African hunting stories and accounts.

Very nice pics man. Great to see Fred Bear in his element.

I thought he was ON his element. Never mind, he's on his elephant.
Great pics. Fred Bear was the MAN.
