LION UPDATE ON NGALA

Lions on Ngala over the past 2 years have been quite difficult to find, but we think that the lion density is on the rise and that they are back for good!

MORNING DRIVE ON THE CRATER FLOOR

We came across a pair of mating lions,...

JOYFUL PLAY IN THE WATER

With all the rain we had, you cannot miss the great entertainment from our lovely hippos just in front of your lounge when sipping the lemonade cocktail. Hippo life in the water looks so amazing. Despite their huge bodies they are very caring creatures.

RIBBON EEL

We were out on Bayena the other day, when we spied this beautiful, blue Ribbon Eel (Rhinomuraena quaesita). Ribbon Eels have an amazing life cycle, they are the only moray eel that is protandric, which means they change sex during their life from male to female. As juveniles they are jet black, but they begin their adult lives as males, in the...

A QUIET JUMP

It is very rare to see a serval cat during the day. We were lucky to see one hunting a rabbit just close to the lodge. We witnessed a beautful jump. There was a loud noise from the rabbit and then silence to end show
