The Week in Pictures : Friday Feels and Furry Things !
The Week in Pictures has been in hibernation for the past two weeks, but now it’s time to emerge. The past couple of weeks we’ve enjoyed sightings of a few of Africa’s iconic species, with the lions and leopards in the spotlight yet again. Today we’re going to kick-back, relax and enjoy a few of […]
The Week in Pictures : Forget Flora, Winter is the (Feline) Fauna Season!
Friday flew past faster than a Peregrine falcon swooping in on its prey, which meant that we didn’t have the chance to release our much loved weekly edition of the “Week in Pictures” – we owe you a bumper edition of pictures. The Lowveld is buzzing with predator activity at the moment. When the bright […]
Chapter 2 : The Little Klaserie Hyena Cubs Emerge from Margaret’s Khaya
About a week ago we released the first 3 videos (Chapter 1) of the discovery of Margaret’s Khaya, a hyena den on the Klaserie traverse. Before we discuss the next 3 videos (Chapter 2) it’s vital that we furnish you with a quick recap. Chapter 1 discussed the discovery of a buzzing hyena den deep […]
Chapter 1 : The Discovery of Margaret’s Den and the Hyena Cubs
While Rogan and Gem were out on their routine morning drive in the Klaserie exploring the thickets for felines, they came across an active hyena den.

Week in Pictures : The Wild of Winter
The thing about winter in the Kruger is that it really is prime game viewing time. The sparse bushveld makes it easy to spot game and the lack of rains means that wildlife congregates at waterholes. We know (generally) where to find game – and the bushveld is far easier to scan for signs of […]
The Week in Pics : All Creatures Great and Small
Winter is in full swing in the Greater Kruger, and predator sightings have steadily increased. The big cats are always there, but with the thinning out of the bushveld they’ve become easier to locate. Giant water-loving herbivores, graceful general game, powerful lions, sleek leopards and adorable critters have provided plenty of sightings for our guests […]

The Week in Pictures : Youth Day
June 16th in South Africa is Youth Day (and this year it coincides with Father’s Day). Youth Day is a day set aside to think about the brutal events that occurred during the Soweto uprising. The 16th is the day when over 20 000 students took to the streets in protest of inequality and oppression […]
