17/07/09: Update for the last few days...
Sorry for being so quiet but here is an update on some happenings in the week...
Sightings of White Rhino's has been good in the last few days and we have recorded 2 groups of 4 animals on traversing!
The Machaton cubs are well and they were out feeding on a buffalo with the adults recently... They still like their milk though!
The Schobele pride walks out of one tragedy to the next. They attempted stealing food from the Timbavati boys and sadly the sub-adult lioness got killed. This is a big blow to the pride as the number has droped to 5 from 7 in less than two months.
Ntombi spent some quality time around the camp and is always ready to entertain!
Last but not least! A new young Leopard introduced herself to us. She is called Ixongile (Ishongile) and it means beautiful. At about 14 months she shows very typical Leopard behaviour by showing how opportunistic they can be...
She somehow managed to kill and eat both an adult and a juvenile African Fish eagle in the nest!
Take care,
Morné
