04 January 2015.

Last day in the prk and to make the most of it we decided to drive from Olifants to Malelelane Gate. Amongst other things we saw the big 5. The last day also provided our only rhino sighting of the trip.

First up we saw Msathu

Onthe S114 we got a glimpse of a leopard

From the Matjulu Bridge near Malelane Gate we got more than a glimpse of a leopard although it was far. The leopard must have been saying, hey, if you want a better sighting of me return to kruger. We had some credits so we did just that on the weekend of 17 January :-)

This sighting took place near Transport Dam on the H1-1 and shows nature at work. We were late arriving at the sighting and were told that the zebra had jsut given birth and the Tawny and Bateleur were feeding on the placenta :shock:
