Kudu Magic
Sitting in the scant shade of a thorn acacia while a hot African sun burned down on an arid land, I wondered idly if Bruce
Truter really would return. Barely an hour has passed since the professional hunter set off downhill on foot to fetch the
Landrover and, by my best calculation, another hour will pass before I expect to see him again. Maybe. Nevertheless, I scanned
the wide plain that unfolds like a giant's apron below me, hoping to see a distant, nearing plume of dust. The plain is
lifeless, except for a small band of zebra feeding lazily among a stand of tall bitter aloe a quarter mile away; watching them,
my mind wandered.
