I bet many people did not know how successful ole Teddy was as a trophy hunter.

I first thought it might be photoshopped, but that couldn't be, as they did not have photoshop in his day. whistle

I remember seeing that picture on the stone tablet that was delivered to our cave when I was quite young.

Teddy was quite a hunter, I think he would have wanted something a bit bigger than his .405 for that!!!

H&H .500/450 IIRC. Been a while since I read "Colonel Roosevelt" which covered the safari of 1909 in pretty good detail.

I'm pretty sure that the picture above was taken by his guide Ingwe. wink
