    My brother ; 53, lives alone on his farm ; 87 km outside of our town, we live in a very remote area here in South Africa. I record your readings so I can give it to my brother to listen to ( I hope you don’t mind) He have a big love for hunting and nature. He ask me to tell you all of this, he absolutely love your readings, he will sit outside by the fire in the evenings and listen to your readings when he is alone, you are the only company he have, I think he have listen to all your stories a hundred times. He say thank you, he loves your readings , please don’t stop and thank you for your company in the evenings…………

      I agree I don't like the other audiobooks read by other people, it just doesn't sound right, And finally hearing how Byra became one of the men so frequently mentioned in these stories was great. I've fallen in love with listening to these stories while gaming, crafting, or just cleaning my house. I hadn't heard about these men until I came across the Champawat Tiger and it was so well read that I immediately wanted more.

    I don't know when Anderson wrote his jungle accounts, but he seems to have 'copied' Corbett's writing style and vocabulary in a big way. It's a bit annoying actually in my opinion. And he overdoes his descriptions - again in my opinion, even though some of his adventures are actually more amazing than Corbetts. My main gripe is that he persisted in calling leopards 'panthers'. A panther is a black leopard. But anyway, he was extremely brave and had a great life and may he rest in peace along with all the wonderful people and interesting animals he came in contact with.

    At around 20 minutes in the video, Kenneth killing the innocent unsuspecting Tiger was a shameful act.
    Much worse than Byra as Byra used to kill deers for survival of his family and him. Out of hunger and poverty.
    Kenneth simply had no reasons.

      Yeah it was. Especially since just a while ago he claimed to have a conscience when Byra had killed a deer to feed his family. He was a trophy hunter mostly. A lot of tigers and Panthers in his stories are wrongly attributed to be man eaters as an excuse to shoot them down. These animals are just trying to survive.
