"Starting as a desert locust control officer in Somalia he had to deal with the lions that came into his territory. At one time he was paid to shoot lions day and night. Ditto for elephants and some other members of the big five. He was a game warden for over 15 years in Uganda. He never turned pro because he always wanted to be the hunter. He hunted in areas that were game rich in a time when they were still almost unknown. He is the one who hunted throughout Ethiopia before making his recommendations to the Game Dept as re some park boundaries."
