08/16/2024

The African Wild Dog, also known as Lycaon pictus or the painted wolf, is one of Africa’s most extraordinary and endangered predators. Here’s why this incredible species deserves our attention:

🐕 Unique Social Structure: These dogs are the ultimate team players! Their pack is a tight-knit community where everyone pitches in to raise the pups, hunt, and look after each other. Talk about family goals!

🏃‍♂️ Endurance Athletes: With the ability to run at speeds of up to 60 km/h (37 mph) over long distances, African Wild Dogs are marathoners of the wild. Their hunting success rate is through the roof, thanks to their teamwork and relentless stamina.

🎨 Distinctive Appearance: Each wild dog sports a one-of-a-kind coat pattern—a true masterpiece of nature’s design. Their patchwork of black, brown, yellow, and white makes them blend seamlessly into the African landscape.

⚠️ Endangered Status: Sadly, these magnificent animals are one of the most endangered species in Africa. With fewer than 7,000 individuals left in the wild, they’re fighting for survival against habitat loss, disease, and human-wildlife conflict.

🎶 Vocal Communicators: Wild Dogs are chatty pack members with a variety of vocalizations. From high-pitched twitters during hunts to rallying calls, their communication skills are as impressive as their hunting prowess.

🌱 Ecological Importance: As apex predators, they play a crucial role in keeping ecosystems in balance, helping to control prey populations and maintain the health of their environment.

🛡️ Conservation Efforts: There’s hope for these painted wolves. Conservation programs are working hard to protect them through anti-poaching efforts, habitat restoration, and vaccinations against deadly diseases.

Every African Wild Dog is a vital piece of Africa’s natural puzzle. Protecting them isn’t just about saving a species—it’s about preserving the wild beauty and balance of the entire continent. 🌍

📅 Planning your next adventure? Why not witness these incredible animals in their natural habitat while you still can? 🐾

GO WILD. STAY WILD.

Remembering a great conservationist and a good friend on what could have been his birthday today. We had some wonderful adventures together including a small helicopter crash😁😁. A wonderful guy who wrote the foreword to Gerald Hinde and my second book together. Still sorely missed Anthony Hall-Martin…

Catching a glimpse of leopards is always a thrill for any wildlife adventurer!

Contrary to popular belief, these majestic creatures don't spend all their time in trees. But when they do climb up, they're much easier to spot! Keep an eye out for dark objects or tails hanging down from tree branches. Remember to scan termite mounds too! Leopards often rest on them during the day and use them as a vantage point while hunting.
Go wild and stay wild on your next safari adventure, and keep your eyes peeled for these elusive felines!

Going on a safari adventure soon? To identify different animal tracks, look at the number of lobes on the pads and the presence of claw marks. Lions and leopards have large pads with retractable claws and three lobes at the back, while hyenas and wild dogs have two lobes with claw marks. Lion tracks are larger than leopard tracks.
Go wild and stay wild, and enjoy the thrill of exploring the African wilderness on your safari!

What a fantastic Friday! Joining in the epic vibe at the World Cup Rugby Champs 2023 parade in the streets of Cape Town city centre.

It's not just the victory that makes us happy, but the inspiration this exceptional group of men brings to the country. From our incredible leader Siya Kolisi - who rose from a deeply underprivileged background in the townships of rural Eastern Cape to become the first black captain of South Africa and the first international captain in 150 years of rugby history to win back-to-back world cups - to every other member of the team from different backgrounds and cultures, Afrikaans, English, Zulu, Xhosa, Sotho, black, white, coloured - all of them connected by an extraordinary bond that surpasses any prescribed government policies. These men have united and inspired the country in ways that cannot be measured, and we look forward to seeing this inspiration work wonders through our leaders and communities. This victory is so much more than just a sports achievement.

South Africa has achieved many more victories over the past few weeks. Recently, the 2023 World Travel Awards took place, and our hometown, Cape Town, won multiple awards.

Now is the perfect time to come and visit! South Africa is riding a wave of euphoria, and the luxury travel product has never been better. It is quite possibly the best place in the world to visit right now.

In honor of World Rhino Day, an extract from my latest book collaborated with Gerald Hinde, Safari Secrets: The Big Five.

The extract is from Chapter 5, RHINO Secrets ...

MUD, GLORIOUS MUD
Thick-skinned, big-bodied animals cannot resist the lure of a muddy waterhole on a hot summer's day. The cooling effect on their skin and the chance to reduce their core temperature is just a part of it. The mud also serves as a sort of hardening body wrap that they can rub off on trees and rocks around the waterhole to remove embedded, irritating, biting insects. It is like a visit to the spa.

I'm thankful beyond words for the dedicated individuals engaged in the conservation efforts for, and physical protection of our precious rhinos. Their unwavering commitment gives hope that the remaining 27,000 rhinos surviving in the wild will be the basis for a powerful comeback.

GO WILD. STAY WILD.
