An American millionaire and big game hunter has died after being killed by a buffalo during a hunting trip to South Africa. Texan ranch trader Asher Watkins, 52, was stalking a 1.3-ton Cape buffalo in Limpopo on Sunday, Aug. 3, when the animal charged at him at 35 mph and fatally struck him, according to multiple outlets, including the Daily Mail and Metro. The trip, reportedly worth almost $10,000, was organized by Coenraad Vermaak Safaris, according to the Daily Mail. It's unclear whether the buffalo was killed following Watkins' death or whether the animal was able to escape. "It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts we confirm the tragic death of our client and friend Asher Watkins from the USA," Hunter Hans Vermaak said in a statement to the outlet on behalf of CV Safaris.
