Tete, Mozambique
• Having hunted most of the traditional Southern African leopard safari countries for the past two decades, we can say without reservation that across all the criteria, what we offer is the most epic leopard hunting adventure.
Situated on the East coast of Southern Africa – Mozambique is a wonderful destination for a true Old Africa adventure. Incorporating both the Capoche and Chipera concessions, the TETENSE safari area is completely unfenced and game coexists with subsistence living villagers all sharing an expansive 500 000 acre section of African wilderness. The TETENSE safari block is positioned within the Tchuma Tchato community area.
Expertise in leopard hunting is a developed skillset attained through diverse exposure to leopard ecology in varied habitats. Learning to think like a big cat is a combination of cumulative tracking plus methodology success and failure. When this is bound with a dogged passion for hunting these elusive felines, the result is a professional determined to achieve the maximum competence.
Two standard methods of hunting the leopard include Bait & Blind and Scent Hounds. Each have their benefits and we utilize the method most suited to the Sport Hunters' requirements, aspirations and abilities.
When hunting with PANTHER TRACKERS there is ONE set rate – no additional Houndsman charges.
Hunting leopard over bait attracts the hunter who enjoys the tactics of ambush and attack. This style is most effective when coupled with our seasoned knowledge of leopard activity concentrations and local habitat preference. The Granite rock dominated environment provides ample Bait & Blind options for the tactical hunter. We combine patience, experience and resolute confidence in setting the stage for the travelling hunter to claim an aged male rosetted cat in the 14-day hunt.
Hunting leopard over hounds is a proactive form of pursuing these elusive cats, and a sound conservation option as we are able to execute specific harvest selection. Our preferred method of hunting, this traditional style involves intense tracking and an in-depth knowledge of leopard ecology. We immerse ourselves in the world of the leopard, trusting our interpretation of leopard behaviour, incorporating the skill of our canine team, with sights set on harvesting the most aged male big cat in the 14-day hunting period.
We actively focus on punching the Leopard tag, thereafter, filling the remaining Safari days with hunting Crocodile, Lion, Elephant and a variety of plains game. There are no extra charges bar the trophy fee – Tiger fishing included!
