Lion hunting in Botswana is conducted by
tracking. Baiting is not legal and relying on a chance sighting is not productive. You
hunt Lions by finding tracks, determining the sex and the size, and then following the
tracks of the big male. In the morning, you might catch up with him warming himself in the
sun. In the middle of the day, you might run into him while he is sleeping in the shade.
Late in the day, you might find him thinking about a meal. But regardless of the time, if
he senses your presence, he may become the hunter and you the hunted. Capstick describes
the dangers, explains what can happen when things go wrong, and then, along with Cundill
and Wilson, Capstick shows you the strategy and excitement of hunting the African Lion. In
northern Botswana, the scrub and terminalia are thick and the hunting method is to track
completely on foot for miles and miles. The Lions can be anywhere and Capstick finds them.
