Basically if they pushed east there is just the S39 then a massive tract north to the H9 linking Phalaborwa gate. There are absolutely no tourist roads in that entire block east/northeast of Timbavati and neighboring private reserves. The only people traversing would be rangers on patrol and science teams, I'd estimate a 1000 sqm, probably greater, between H7, S39 and H9 pretty much devoid of human activity except that of a transitory nature in itself. The major natural barrier would be the Olifants river which is perennial but also allows a fairly easy crossing unless in full flow during heavy rains. Poaching is a scourge but that area has the Timbavati and neighboring reserves as a buffer to the west and vast wilderness to Mozambique so they should be relatively safe from that danger.

Two strong males entering their prime with a decent bond, I think their chances of making it are about as good as can be expected. I reckon they're in that zone, or so I'd like to think.

Yes, they entered that area east of southern Timbavati, south is H7 road, and further east s39, no road inside, so unless they dont show on this roads or in Timbavati, we will not see then.

And we dont know if they moved further away north, which is also empty of roads, as you said. Reply
