My father tells the story of an old character from the 1950's, I can't recall his name, who was sort of a Marlin Perkin's/Jack Hanna of his time. He would collect exotic wildlife from South/Central America and would get monkeys out of the canopy by shooting off the branch that they were clinging to and catch them in a net as they fell. He was asked by a reporter doing a story on him why he used a .44 Magnum. His reply was "because they don't make a .45 Magnum".
