Professional hunter exposed of poaching

A professional hunter operating along the Zambezi Valley in the Kanyemba area was on Monday accused of illegally poaching a hippopotamus.

The hunter, Michael Muller, was forced to respond to charges of poaching during the trial of a safari operator, Terrence Kelly, who is accused of dissembling bait.

Kelly, who is the director of Suscaden Investments operating Fisheries Concession, is accused of removing bait, cameras and snares used by Big Five Concession clients to hunt a lion.
