Good morning!
The past two days in the Kruger brought Robin & his guests wild dog again! This time they first tried their luck on a herd of elephant, who of course promptly chased them off. They then decided that impala may be their better option!
For the rest they saw a water monitor hunting birds, leopard, white rhino, black rhino, buffalo and a pride of lion.

Good morning everyone and Happy Easter to you all!
Kylie’s guests were late arrivals and as such they only had a short 2 hours for their first ever game drives in the Kruger National Park. Now those of you who have been there will know that you are most likely to see impala first, or maybe zebra, wildebeest or giraffe. Well, that is not good enough for her!
Barely 5 minutes into the park, they found a pack of 8 wild dog in the road! This was followed by hyena with a brand new baby, so new that it was still pitch black! The rest of this short but productive drive produced white rhino, kudu, scrub hare and of course the inevitable impala!

Hi everyone!
The Park is buzzing once more! On the afternoon drive yesterday Robin & his guests saw Nyala, Zebra, Giraffe & (here it comes) Wild Dog!
The problem with our guides seeing so many wild dog is that our guests are beginning to think we lie to them! Everyone tells them that Wild Dog are very endangered, yet they see them on 50% of our game drives! What a pleasure!
