We are making some changes to the wildwatch.com website to make it more exciting, more informative, and lively. In the meantime, we feature here an article on the Munyawana Leopard Project which is being run and managed at Phinda, with the goal of monitoring the density and movements of these majestic cats. There is also a gallery of spectacular photographs taken by &BEYOND ranger William Moss at Kwandwe Private Game Reserve, and updates on how recent rains have changed the landscapes at Kichwa Tembo and Sossusvlei Mountain Lodge.
