This was one of our best lion sightings in a while!

13 June, Croc Bridge

There was a small waterhole across the road and the lion made his way there, all the while roaring his head off!!

We thought he was going to drink, but he sniffed around a bit, sprayed a few bushes and then turned round and headed back to his mate.

Of course we missed videoing the best bits,

but you can still hear him roaring a bit.

Unfortunately the clock was ticking and we had to leave.

But this was one of our best lion sightings in a long time. There is nothing so majestic as a male lion in motion, and in full voice!!

We headed back down the S130, and came across the sunset drive vehicle stopped in the middle of the road. I stopped and waited for the driver to move over so we could get past, but he couldn't start the vehicle! $0*\$ We waited and waited, but eventually we had to get moving otherwise we would get back to camp late. I had to drive off road, with the guests in the vehicle directing me. I was just praying that we wouldn't get another puncture!

As we made it past, the driver managed to start the truck!! $0*\$ Anyway, we made it back to camp with seconds to spare, and got our last fire going. Pork ribs and rump steak were on the menu, and perfectly cooked if I say so myself!

Nice food!

That pan is bone dry now...

Wild dogs on the S130 $O\/$ $O\/$ I have been watching sightings of this lot and initially only 2 were seen together all the time and only recently a 3rd joined them, I'm surprised they have made it $O/\$ Fantastic pics of the dogs

The 1 male lion had a faulty Mohawk hairstyle

Awesome that 1 came your direction

A feast for supper

Definitely better than just sleeping!

There's wasn't much water in that pan then so I'm not surprised it's empty now.

That was a truly Kgalagadi style

lion sighting! Awesome $O/\$

Nothing like a bit of red meat every now and then.
