Lion Kill Taken Over in Hyena & Vulture Frenzy!
Fantastic predator action in the Klaserie this weekend with the presence of the Mapoza male lions who took down a buffalo and began to feast on Friday morning.

Week in Pictures: Safari Stars
Time might seem like it’s flying as we enter the second month of 2017, but the timelessness of the bush slows us right back down and reminds us that every moment holds something special. The stars come up every night, but so seldom do we take the time to glance up and gaze at it. […]
Moremi Game Reserve Self Drive from Tuskers Bush Camp

The bushveld has its own version of poetry in motion and we’d […]
Umkumbe Big Cat Update : Old Favourites Make a Comeback
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again – the Sabi Sand is big cat paradise. We often enjoy consecutive sightings of a particular pride or lone leopard for a brief period before they wander further afield. Lion pride dynamics shift and sub-adults become burgeoning leaders. Leopard cubs explore new territory and dominant males […]
Week in Pictures : Stripes, Fur, Helmets and Plumes
Dazzles of zebra, leaps of leopard, proud lion prides and baleful buffalo herds take centre stage in today’s week in pictures.
