African Wild dogs - Page 2

November started with a bang as the very first morning our guides located the River pride feasting on a giraffe kill in the ridges above the Klaserie river. With the summer temperatures heating up, our favourite feline family soon decided the cool river sands below were a better way to spend the day and, one-by-one, migrated to their watery namesake. It was here, enjoying a wonderful view of the pride lying up amongst the reeds, that the Island female leopard and her cub were spotted hiding in a huge Nyala tree just 100 metres away.

Beyond some incredible lion sightings, October also proved a fantastic month for the many other wild and wonderful creatures of the Klaserie. Catch up with your favourite leopard, African wild dog and other characters with part 2 of our October update...

July is traditionally considered a great month for predator sightings in South Africa. Winter coincides with the dry season here in the Lowveld, forcing animals to gather at the dwindling water sources. As the trees surrender their leaves and the grass becomes thin and sparse, it can become easier to spot the elusive leopard or sleepy lion lying up in the bush. No surprise then that we had another bumper month of Big cat sightings! Read on for more...

Just like that, we’re half way through 2021! We can hardly believe how the year has flown before our very eyes, although the yellowing grass and misty mornings play testament to that fact. As another month passes, read on to discover the latest bush happenings at Klaserie Drift.

Although the weather may have taken a predictable, wintry turn, the animals remain as unpredictable and exciting as ever. May was a month filled with plentiful lions, charismatic African wild dogs and a surprising bounty of chameleons!
