Klaserie Wild Dogs Displace Leopard from Kill

Leopard with Kill

Two species. One sighting. Both vastly different in their take down of quarry and execution of kill tactics. This is the story of how local leopardess Ross Dam had her fragmented carcass stolen by a pack of unscrupulous wild dogs. Only the marula tree where she sought refuge will know the true version of events […]

Week in Pics : Landscapes, Predators and Plains Game

Impala Cross the Road

This week we’ve enjoyed a slew of interesting photos emerging from our camps and lodges. The thunderstorms are rolling in, which is a clear indicator that summer is approaching.

National Women’s Day in South Africa : Meet Melita the Chef from nThambo

Melita in the nThambo Kitchen

Today, August 9th, is National Women’s Day in South Africa and is declared a public holiday. Today is the day we commemorate the 1956 march held by women to petition against an ancient apartheid law that required all persons of colour to carry a ‘pass’. This pass was cruelly and unfairly given to non-whites to restrict their […]
