Lions of Sabi Sands

Day 2: morning safari 

Our plan for this chilly morning was to find lions. We had audio of lions deep south and headed in that direction bypassing 2 male leopards which we also heard calling. We spent the entire morning searching for them and towards the end of drive their tracks crossed into an area that we could not traverse. We had lots of general game on route back to camp. 

Day 2: afternoon safari
Our afternoon plan was still lions. There were tracks of lions in the north this morning so we headed there and we began searching. Eventually one of our trackers called in a male lion and we moved to where he’d last seen him and we located 2 young males (Plains Camp males) who settled into thick bushes. We sat with them for over an hour hoping that as the sun went lower they’d move into the open. Our patience paid and we had an awesome sighting with them. We left them after dark as they went back to sleep and headed back to camp ending an interestingly awesome day in the bush. Reply
