There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
The afternoon of the 11th was a wet one. The Mbiri pride however made it easy for us. They killed a Buffalo right in the lodge, at baker suite. Only 4 of the females were present though. We managed to find the other female on catwalk west, but she moved back into the drainage line, towards her cubs.
The morning of the 12th started off with ball 5 of the Mbiri lionesses on our delivery access. We then had some good general game sightings on Madache, including an elephant calf of only a few weeks old. The Thanda Impi male Lions were found on Piva path later in the morning.
In the afternoon, the Thanda Impi male Lions were found again on Piva path. The Mbiri pride were found on Windi Windi, this time with the cubs out in the open. It was a privilege to spent time with the cubs, who are as relaxed as their mothers. A skittish female leopard was briefly seen on Mantwaan Mphisi.
This morning, we started off with the Thanda Impi male Lions on Catwalk west. The Tekwane male Leopard was found on civet road as well.
