Fantastic insight into the beginning of a legendary Tracker. I think you have to be born with that amazing instinct because I am sure I would never have found that cow! Thanks for a great blog Ryan, and thank you Richard, for sharing many of your life stories that helped to create such a great book that many children, and adults too, will learn from and enjoy!

Thanks Jill. I love the story because there have been a number of times on game drives that I have thought that the chase was over, and the leopard was long gone. But Richard always persists, and (nearly) always, we find the prize. It’s incredible.

Great story Ryan

Great article. Thank you. I really enjoy reading about the trackers and the rest of the staff. Their background, what brought them into their work, etc. Best wishes.
