LOCK DOWN PHOTOGRAPHIC SAFARI XXXXI

Mariana (our Wildlife Coordinator) and I had a fantastic Cheetah sighting today. Mum and her three cubs are well.

The three little ones love to climb trees and have a lot of energy. This are my two favorite pictures of today.

More to follow soon …

Enjoy your evening, stay home and stay safe!

LOCK DOWN PHOTOGRAPHIC SAFARI XXXVIII

Great news!

A new young Cheetah female arrived at Thanda Safari last night from the Eastern Cape.

She was released into a boma (enclosed area) where she will stay for a while to get used to her new surroundings. We are very happy to welcome another member to the Thanda Cheetah conservation project.

LOCK DOWN PHOTOGRAPHIC SAFARI XIII

Another rainy day! Which is very good for the environment, but not too pleasant for a game drive.

Nevertheless Mariana Venter – Thanda Safari Wildlife coordinator – and I went to the savanna in the North to check up on one of our Cheetah females and her three cubs.

After we located them using telemetry we took a short walk onto the savanna to get a better view. We spotted mum and her little ones but I was only able to get a picture of the female. The cubs were lying down and only the tips of their ears were visible.

Better luck next time!

Enjoy your evening, stay home and stay safe 😊
