Black and white lantern slide showing a proud male hunter displaying his catch, a leopard, which hangs by its neck from a tree. The man, wearing a shirt and trousers, holds a long hunting rifle at his side. A metal trap can be seen on the ground below the tree. The caption to the image reads: "Hunter & Leopard. N.b Trap & Gun." This slide comes from a collection generated by missionaries working for the Congo Balolo Mission, a mission begun in 1889 under the supervision of the East London Training Institute for Home and Foreign Missions that developed into the interdenominational evangelical mission Regions Beyond Missionary Union after 1900.
