No it didn't go as far as that, but there was an official hunting inspector in camp. However, I have been contacted by several viewers who basically had the same experience with Kyrgyzstan.

For sure it was frustrating, the potential is certainly there in both the land and the induviduals but the hierarchy and structure just isn't there.

Last day there was a collection of tips and then a closed-door meeting between the money-holder and a person who drove us back in a rather fancy car.

I flat out refused to offer any tip that way, gave it directly to the boys who worked.
