Bunny Allen Books

Frank Maurice 'Bunny' Allen, (1906 - 2002) was born in Britain and lived most of his life in Kenya. He hunted with Denys Finch Hatton and Bror Blixen and accompanied three royal safaris. He was much in demand by Hollywood studios as to find the African wildlife 'backdrop' for movies and as a stand-in for actors in dangerous scenes. Bunny Allen obituary

In 1996 a documentary, 'A Gypsy In Africa', was made with Bunny Allen recounting his life exploits. This was made into a DVD but is hard to find a copy now.
