There are apparently over 20 lion in MZNP at the moment. I'm sure the youngsters will have to be moved at some stage \O
Have you got any info on how far the "corridor" project towards Camdeboo has evolved? Maybe, if they manage to realise that
the lions could stay as there would be a larger area to roam and not all the buffs at MZ would get eaten lol

What a lion sighting :shock: Considering how vast Mountain Zebra is, you would think the lions had every opportunity to avoid
people - but they gave their best to please you :-0

Outstanding photos!!! ^Q^ ^Q^ ^Q^

We saw one small one popping out the den and 3 others running away but couldn't get any pictures of them

At least you saw them, they are not a very common sight! I have been lucky enough to see one in KTP, but from quite far away :-(

Blue cranes are best found in the Overberg Wheat fields , Graaff Reinet area (Near MT Zebra ..The Karoo is their main habitat )
