SHOTGUN ????? For 500lbs of pissed off *****???
That may work for Leopards, but lions are a subject all their own. Maybe, just maybe, a 10ga with a slug will work in close. Forget buckshot.
He should have followed up more quickly with his second shot while the cat regained his feet and looked around. The PH should have been on that cat the minute it got up after the client shot. Thats what he's paid to do; back up a clients so-so first shot.
Everyone was very, verylucky to have walked away from this one.
