Today dawned overcast and cool, just as it was yesterday. A large part of the Park had good rain overnight and it rained quite heavily in parts while we were on tour today. After the heat and dry weather over the last few months I will never complain again about rain...

For a wonderful change we had cool, overcast and damp weather conditions in the Park after some overnight rain and you could almost see the animals smiling after the dry and windy weather of late. We were spoilt rotten by cats and dogs today ! First we ran into a pack...

A good start again today with a pride of 8 lions chilling out in the river bed at Umganu picnic site in the south. We had breakfast there in the hope that they may start hunting but it was soon clear that they were not going anywhere soon ! Just before that we got a...

Our lucky streak with lions continued early today when we came across a pride of 7 near Mphafa Hide in the south. There were two big males in the pride and they were snapping and snarling at each other in an apparent display of dominance. Eventually they seemed to...

We had an amazing start to the day with 10 wild dogs ( 2 adults & 8 pups ) drinking from a water hole right at Nyalazi Gate. They entertained us for 20 minutes with their antics before wandering off to find breakfast no doubt !! For the first time in 3 days we did...

Can’t imagine there could be worse weather than we had in the Park today, it blew a gale force Easterly the whole day which turned the Park into one huge dust bowl. To add to our weather woes it was also extremely cold early on and… of course… bone dry !!...

We headed straight for Umbondwe this morning to see if there was any action around the reported lion kill in the area yesterday afternoon. It was all in vain sadly as there was no sign of any kill, although 8 lions did appear in the same vicinity around mid morning....

A good weekend for cats it was, or, more specifically, lions !! We got them on both Saturday and Sunday in the river bed at the main Umfolozi bridge in the south of the Park. There were about 6 mature females and at least 3 cubs at various times and they are part of a...

There was a little relief from the blisteringly hot weather for a change today, in fact it was beautifully cool and relatively windless although still bone dry. We had a great lion sighting towards the end of Sontuli loop just after breakfast when two big males...

Our day started in magnificent fashion today when we were treated to a spectacle of 15 wild dogs at the main Umfolozi bridge. They were in a playful mood and entertained us for around 45 minutes before wandering off, probably to find breakfast !! Just before that we...
