Good shot, Mi'lord...

Lord Dunsany followed big-game hunting as circumstances allowed. In the 1930's the proprietors of Lobb & Co., the gentleman's boot maker in St. Jame's, advertised by means of a trap drawn by two zebras. Never having bagged a zebra, Dunsany took up a position between Fortnum and Mason and Hatchards and shot them both dead as they trotted down Piccadilly.
