"Quarantine male was found late afternoon moving about. When we first saw him he was following a few Zebra and water buck. Soon after they moved away from him and he continued to search for a meal."

From Londolozi Game Reserve, The Week in Pictures #241:
"The Mashaba female looks up from feeding on her impala kill in the dawn light. This was a fantastic sighting, for the simple reason that she and her cub had been reunited after a long hiatus. Look out for an update on this pair next week."

"The Makhotini male leopard walks away from the Ostrich, who he had just chased for the fourth time on this morning."

*This image is copyright of its original author

"The 4:4 male is one you need a long lens to get good photographs of, as he so rarely allows vehicles close to him. On this occasion we were hanging well back to try and photograph him in his surroundings, and he obliged by scent marking along the edge of the Maxabene Riverbed."

"Yesterday on drive we got to see this beast of a leopard again! Anderson who was laying close to Salayexe. He approached her and she ran away from him.. Awesome to see these two in the same sighting!"

From Sabi Sabi Private Game Reserve, 23 July 2016:
"The young Kigelia female was found last night and we followed her for quite a distance in the early evening as she was hunting and eventually were lucky enough to watch her steal some meat from a hyena which she took up a tree."

*This image is copyright of its original author

"We located three of the Southern Pride females and the two cubs chasing a clan of Spotted Hyenas. All this attention drew the attention of Maxabeni who climbed a tree and fed on some old skin before being chased off by the lions too. He decided there was way too much pressure from the other larger predators around so he quickly made his way out of the area, aided by the fact he had a lioness on his tail the whole way. "

"Maxabeni was out patrolling his territory with determination last night."

"The young Tatowa female was found quite far east of where she has normally been seen and had a few failed attempts at catching hares before she slowly made her way back north."

25 July 2016:
"Little Bush had no time to rest this morning as her cub kept stalking her, jumping on her and was continuously in and out of trees."

*This image is copyright of its original author

26 July 2016:
"The Little Bush female and her cub finished off their bushbuck kill last night and spent some time grooming each other before moving off into the night."

Inyati Game Lodge:
We found Tlangisa mating with Homelite. Sadly this confirms that her last litter did not survive. But, true to her usual behaviour she is getting on with it and looking to the future.
