Lady Catherine Minna Jenkins was an experienced hunter who lived in Bombay with her husband, Sir Lawrence Hugh Jenkins, who was a judge. In 1906 she went to Tibet for four months to hunt, where she hunted mountain sheep, gazelle, and antelope. She was unique during her time for being one of the only Edwardian women who set out on solidarity hunting expeditions.
