DID YOU KNOW?

Female giraffes give birth standing up. The result?Newborns are welcomed to the world with a 1.5m drop to the ground! Ouch!!
But this helps to break the umbilical cord, protect the baby's long neck and encourage the baby to take her first breath and these infants are quick to get on their feet- within 30 minutes they are standing, and only hours later they are able to run with their mothers.

NEW MEMBERS ALERT!!!

Yesterday we welcomed this family of sables to the Game Reserve.
One of our guides managed to take a few snaps of them wondering around, checking out their new home and meeting 'new friends".

The Cape Buffalo's curved horns add to the stature of an already imposing animal, which can reach seven feet from tip to tail. Horns can help distinguish age and s*x. In large adult males, the horns meet in the middle of their heads and are joined by a hard shield and this creates a helmet-esque formation. The horns are used for defense and to determine dominance for mating.
Females also have horns that are narrower and smaller.

Book your 2 hour game drive/horse safari and get a chance of spotting the Cape Buffalo at Plett Game Reserve.

FACILITIES AT PLETT GAME RESERVE

The visitor center at Plett Game Reserve offers comforts for guests who are about to go on or who have just returned from a game drive or horseback safari.

In summer, relax in the coolness of the lounge with an ice cold drink, or huddle up in front of the fire with a coffee during winter. Play a game of snooker while you wait, browse the merchandise or read a book in a cosy corner and lose yourself in Africa.

Up at the Baroness Lodge we have boma facilities for functions or a special occasion overlooking the dam where hippos sometimes wallow.

Visit https://www.plettgamereserve.com/ for further details.

Cape Cobras are a rare sight. A large adult was found today at the Plett Game Reserve Lodge, so resident game ranger Devon removed the beautiful snake to a place where it could be safely released.

The Cape Cobra is a non-spitting cobra, but its bite is highly venomous. Adults can reach up to 1.6m in length.

DID YOU KNOW?

Hippos don't swim! Seems bizarre right? ... considering they spend most of their time in the water!

While they may look like they're swimming they're actually just walking along the bottom of the lake/river they're in.

These water lovers are closely related to whales and porpoises and can live up to 40 years, so this little one pictured below still has some living to do!

You can see hippos at Plett Game Reserve on one of our 2-hour game drives.
