All concerns about the quality of game viewing after the floods have been laid to rest firmly! Our drives have been as productive as ever with some brilliant sightings!

Willem was lucky enough to find a male leopard who was trapped in a tree by a herd of buffalo. He was just out of reach of the buffalo’s horns. The buff really tried to get at him, but to no avail. A brilliant sighting!

Further sightings include some cheetah, rhino, wild dog, elephant, more buffalo, lion, leopard, duiker, kudu, zebra, giraffe, impala, klipspringer and bushbuck.

Kylie’s great sightings continues! she says: “Yesterday we had some great elephant sightings with a lot of them playing in little water puddles next to the road. The young ones are loving all the water around and it seems to give them a lot of energy as all of them are constantly play fighting.

Kylie’s at it again! “Yesterday afternoon didn’t disappoint after all our awesome sightings. We had an amazing elephant sighting with a huge breeding herd playing in a small water pool right next to the road, throwing water all over themselces as well as each other, and then also a very large elephant bull without a tail in musth, right next to the road.

Kylie’s sightings in the past week has been as good as ever! She says:

“Every drive has brought many unexpected but amazing sightings over the past 5 days. We have been very lucky in seeing at least one of the big cats in every drive, seeing lions 4 times (including once where 3 big males were walking up the road towards us and stopped about a meter from the vehicle and just stared at us allowing us great shots), 3 leopards with one that was not a happy cat being absolutely covered in mud, and very strangely but very luckily we have seen cheetahs 4 times. This is very strange around the Skukuza area as it is such thick vegetation but we have had sightings of 3 brothers, a lone female and a female with 2 cubs all around this area.

2012 has arrived! May this year bring you lots of joy and happiness!

Game viewing in the Kruger National Park took off with a bang! Dylan and his guests had brilliant sightings with the Sabi Sands guests all of the big 5 as well as a pack of wild dog hunting, killing and eating a bush buck! Back in Kruger they were treated to a rare sighting of 3 cheetah being chased towards our game drive vehicle by 3 white rhino! Further sightings include a pride of lion on a buffalo kill loads of plains game and a rare black rhino!
