In this episode of The Big Game Hunting Podcast, host John McAdams sits down with Bringing Back the Lions & Bringing Back The Wild author Mike Arnold.

They discuss Mike’s recent safari in Mozambique where he successfully hunted crocodile and spotted hyena. Mike also shares a few details about his brand new book: Bringing Back The Wild.

Their takeaway? That part of Mozambique is a fantastic area for crocodile hunting and hunting hyena at night with a thermal is an exciting way to pursue those wary creatures. Plus, Mike’s new book is a great read for those who want to learn more about how sustainable hunting can benefit both local communities and wildlife populations.
