Bush Walk Adventure with Ashton College! 🥾✨

Today, we embarked on an unforgettable bush walk at the Stillbosch Nature Reserve with 25 enthusiastic students from Ashton College.

We encountered a diverse array of wildlife, including graceful giraffes, herds of wildebeest, and mischievous warthogs. Walking amongst these incredible animals was truly awe-inspiring!

The students were amazing, full of curiosity and excitement. It was a day filled with laughter, learning, and a deep appreciation for the wonders of nature.

Ever spotted a wild dog in Kruger with a fancy collar?
These collars are like tiny trackers, helping scientists understand these amazing animals better.
Collars with GPS help researchers follow where the packs roam, which is super important for protecting their habitats.
Some collars even monitor a dog's health, like their heartbeat and temperature. This helps vets keep an eye on their well-being.
If a collared dog stays still for too long, it could mean they're in trouble, like caught in a snare. This alerts rangers to rush to the rescue!
So, next time you see a collared wild dog, remember it's playing a vital role in their conservation!

The Majestic White Rhino

The white rhino is the second-largest land mammal on Earth and forms part of the "Big 5

Wide Mouth, Not White Skin: Their name comes from the Afrikaans word "wyd", meaning wide, referring to their square-shaped mouths. White rhinos are grazers, primarily feeding on grasses. They live in groups called "crashes," typically consisting of females and their calves. White rhinos have two horns, with the front horn being significantly larger than the rear horn.

Conservation efforts are crucial to protect these magnificent creatures. Let's work together to ensure their survival for generations to come.

Thrilling Safari Encounter: Lions, Impala, and a Crocodile!

Today, we witnessed an incredible scene in Kruger National Park. Three female lions successfully hunted an impala in the river. The sight of their prey attracted the attention of a crocodile, which quickly made its way towards the water. Just as the crocodile was about to claim its meal, a male lion appeared, asserting its dominance.

It was a tense standoff, with the lions and the crocodile eyeing each other warily. Eventually, the lions managed to hold their ground, and the crocodile retreated.

This incredible encounter was a reminder of the intricate balance of power in the African bush. It was a privilege to witness such a dramatic display of nature's raw power.

Have you ever seen birds hitching a ride on animals? 🐦🐘

That's likely the work of the Red-billed Oxpecker (Rooibekrenostervoel)!
These fascinating birds have a unique relationship with large mammals like zebras, rhinos, Giraffes and even elephants.

Oxpeckers primarily feed on ticks and other parasites found on their animal hosts.
While they benefit from a readily available food source, their hosts also gain by having parasites removed. Oxpeckers have strong claws that help them cling to their hosts, even when they're moving. They're easily recognizable by their red beaks and yellow rings around their eyes.
Next time you're on safari, keep an eye out for these interesting birds!

Happy Valentine's Day from Kruger National Park! ❤️

Today, we witnessed a truly heartwarming display of love in the wild. A mother elephant and her calf were grazing nearby, and when we approached a bit too closely, the mother instinctively stepped in front of her baby, shielding it with her massive body.

This powerful act of protection reminded us of the incredible bond between a mother and her child, a love that transcends species. It was a truly special moment to witness on this Valentine's Day.

"What do you call a group of hippos together? 🤔
It's a bit of a tricky one!
Some people call it a bloat of hippos.
Others prefer crash or pod.

Bird of the Week: Lilac-breasted Roller (Gewone Troupant)
This week, let's celebrate the dazzling Lilac-breasted Roller! 🌈

These birds are known for their stunning iridescent plumage, showcasing a mix of lilacs, blues, and greens. They are known for their spectacular aerial displays, including impressive dives, rolls, and twists in flight. They often hunt by dropping prey from a height onto hard surfaces to break them open before consuming them.

We've asked all our clients about their favourite African animal, and the giraffe consistently comes out on top! It's no wonder – these gentle giants are truly magnificent creatures.

Giraffes are the tallest land mammals on Earth, with males reaching heights of up to 5 meters! Just like human fingerprints, no two giraffes have the same spot pattern. Giraffes have incredibly powerful legs that allow them to run at speeds of up to 60km/h!
Their long, prehensile tongues can be up to 45cm long, helping them reach leaves high up in trees. Giraffes live in herds called "towers" and communicate with each other through a variety of vocalizations and body language.

The Master Hunter Leopard
The leopard is one of the most elusive and beautiful big cats in Africa and forms part of the "Big 5.
Leopards are solitary animals and expert hunters, known for their stealth and agility.
They are incredibly strong climbers and often drag their prey up into trees to avoid other predators like hyenas. Leopards are primarily nocturnal, making them difficult to spot during the day. Each leopard has a unique pattern of spots, making them easily identifiable by researchers. Due to habitat loss, poaching, and human-wildlife conflict, leopards are classified as "Vulnerable" on the IUCN Red List.
Have you ever been lucky enough to spot a leopard in the wild?

Bird of the Week: Brown Snake Eagle (Bruinslangarend)
This week, we're spotlighting the formidable Brown Snake Eagle! 🦅
As their name suggests, these eagles are specialized snake hunters, equipped with powerful talons and a strong beak to subdue their prey. Brown Snake Eagles are typically solitary birds, often seen perched on high branches scanning the ground for snakes. They have a wide range across Africa, inhabiting savannas, woodlands, and grasslands.

Happy February!
We spotted some warthogs today, and we're wondering... are they fighting or flirting? 😉 Warthogs are fascinating creatures with some unique features:

Those warts aren't just for show! They're actually made of bone and help protect their eyes during fights. Both males and females have tusks, which they use for digging, defense, and even grooming! Warthogs are expert diggers, creating burrows for shelter and escaping predators.

Do you have any guesses on whether those warthogs were fighting or in love?

It's important to note that while warthogs may appear to be fighting, it's often a form of social interaction or establishing dominance. True aggression is usually accompanied by more intense behaviors like charging and biting.

Cape Buffalo: The African Beast
The Cape Buffalo is a truly formidable animal and one of the "Big Five" game animals in Africa.
Known for their unpredictable and aggressive nature, buffalo are considered one of the most dangerous animals in Africa. They have a low tolerance for humans and can charge with incredible speed and force. These animals are incredibly strong and can weigh up to 1,500 kg (3,300 lbs)
Their thick, black hides offer excellent protection against predators. Cape buffalo live in large herds, providing safety in numbers. They play a vital role in shaping the African savanna by grazing and maintaining open grasslands.
How amazing are they?

Elephants with Broken Tusks in Kruger National Park.
Have you ever wondered why some elephants in Kruger National Park have broken tusks?
Elephants use their tusks for various activities like digging for food, stripping bark, and even fighting. Over time, this can lead to cracks and breakage.
Male elephants engage in fierce battles for dominance, often using their tusks as weapons. These battles can result in broken or chipped tusks.
Elephants are large and powerful animals, and accidents can happen. They might injure their tusks while foraging, interacting with other animals, or navigating their environment.

It's important to remember that elephants are complex animals, and understanding their behaviour and challenges is crucial for their conservation. When you see elephants in Kruger National Park, take a moment to appreciate these magnificent creatures and the challenges they face.
