Week in Pictures : Dive Bombing into 2017
Dive bombing into 2017 like a kingfisher, owning 2017 like a burgeoning lion pride, relaxing in 2017 like a leopard during the heat of the day and slithering through troubling times in 2017 like a lethal black mamba.

Wild Dogs & Pups Make a Kill at nThambo!
Putting it modestly, we’ve had an EPIC couple of weeks in the Klaserie! There’s just no other way of putting it. From a cheetah calmly feeding on her kill, only to lose it to a leopard; the Breakaway lionesses killing a buffalo right in front of our eyes, shortly joined by the greedy Mapoza male; the […]
Hercules Pride Feast on a Buffalo Kill
The indomitable Hercules Pride was spotted looking as fierce as ever as they chowed down on a buffalo carcass recently.
