The Western Pride of Lions Visits the Klaserie
2 healthy and proud lionesses led a pride of 7 lithe sub-adult lions through the sparse crunchy brown thickets in search of prey. They were spotted late September and visibility was 100% due to the thinning bushveld, the hallmark of late winter in the Klaserie. It was the time of year when sporadic sprouts of […]
Week in Pics : Our Images Do the Talking
Monday is upon us, and the bushveld is buzzing with activity. Many of us break for the weekend, but the bushveld doesn’t sleep. It thrives 24/7 with endless ruthless tales of predators stripping herds of their young ones, arboreal creatures hiding out in their woody habitats, elephants splashing in waterholes, scavengers seeking out a bushveld […]
Week in Pics : Bushveld Solitude as December Descends
December is descending upon us faster than a leopard ambushes its prey. The silly season is approaching, and with it comes plenty of mass marketing, enticing jingles and manic behaviour from humans. This is the time of year to indulge in the solitude of the bushveld and observe the natural life that continues to unfold despite […]
Klaserie Wild Dogs Displace Leopard from Kill

Camp Life at Africa on Foot Wilderness Trails
You’ve spent most of the day on foot, lumbering across rocky terrain and you don’t have the modified foot pads that elephants possess. Your feet are probably tired, your achilles tendon might be sore, and your body may be slightly frazzled from the African weather conditions. Our mobile walking safari is adventurous. Designed to bring […]
Week in Pics : The Spoils of the African Bushveld
We’ve discovered that the best way to kick the Monday blues is to start the week off with an influx of wildlife images from our camps and lodges.
