Photoblog: When the Klaserie lions took down a buffalo

    Recently there was great excitement emerging from the dry landscape of the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve near Africa on Foot and nThambo Tree Camp.

Guest blog: lion cubs in the Klaserie!

Mike and Fiona have come to the end of their safari this time (although we know it won’t be long until we see them again!), and we’ve just read about their last few days at Africa on Foot. There couldn’t have been a more magnificent ending if we could have planned it – lion cubs […]

Trilogy and Ross Pride Update: Lion Charges Vehicle in Klaserie

As we suspected, the Trilogy of lions trying to take over the Ross Pride kingdom are a fierce coalition of lions.

The Trilogy of Lions are Causing Drama for the Ross Pride

There’s a buzz in the air in the vicinity of nThambo Tree Camp. Daily we are receiving updates about how the “Trilogy” of male lions are slowly creeping their way into the Ross Pride territory. It was subtle at first and now they are being quite bolshy about their intentions. Initially they appeared skittish with […]
