On Safari With Mark From 5 May 2014


5 May 2014

Route: Skukuza - Elloff - Lower Sabi - Elloff -

General animals seen: impala, kudu, giraffe, hippos, crocodile, buffalo, elephant

Highlights: on our drive to lower sabi we found two wild dogs that had just killed a impala. They enjoyed themselves and we could literally see their stomachs swell as they devoured the antelope. The guests loved it and brilliant photos were taken.

For the afternoon drive it was really quiet with very little seen.

Hope to get some Lions out close to the road on our route to Satara.


6 May 2014

Route: Skukuza - Tshokwane tar - Satara - Orpen gate road

General animals seen: impala, kudu, warthog, giraffe, waterbuck, hippos, elephants

Highlights: On route to Satara we stopped at the baobab tree, which guests loved to see and took photos of Africa's largest tree.

Before we booked in we decided to head down the Orpen gate road for the first 5km and found 3 wild dogs lying in the open. We then moved on and opposite Nsemani dam we found a male and female lion on honeymoon. As we switched off the car, the female got up with the male right behind her and walked out onto the road right past our car. Guests loved it and many photos were taken. Some out of focus as the lions were too close to the vehicle. Great sighting anyway 


Keep watching for more!
