Strap in for a wild ride in this episode of This is Africa, The Podcast as we sit down with one of Africa’s most seasoned professional hunters—Butch Coaton. Born and bred in the Zimbabwean bush, Butch has carved out a legendary career spanning 38 years, flying and hunting across Zimbabwe, Zambia, Namibia, Tanzania, and South Africa.
With over 100 leopard hunts under his belt, Butch doesn’t just tell stories—he lives them. From near misses with elephants to charged encounters with buffalo and cats that disappear like ghosts, this episode is a front-row seat to the kind of action you won’t find in any safari brochure.
Butch opens up about how the industry has changed, what it takes to manage vast wild territories, and the gritty reality of life behind the rifle and yoke of a bush plane.
This one’s raw, real, and full of bushveld grit.
Hit play. This is Africa.
