Exeter is situated within the Sabi Sand Game Reserve, renowned for having the best Big Five game-viewing in South Africa, if not the world.The Reserve is famous for its incredible leopard sightings. The Sabi Sand leopards have grown accustomed to safari vehicles, thereby permitting close up sightings and extraordinary photographic opportunities.
Caracal at last!!
“Isaac, how many times have you seen a caracal in the 15 years you have been a tracker?” Isaac answers, “Only 4 times!” So when this small but powerfully built predator revealed itself one evening drive, Isaac nearly fell off the tracker seat in excitement!!! It was a lone female, hunting, moving silently through the grasslands searching for small unsuspecting birds and mammals as she scanned her territory. Her large, deep set eyes were cold and calculating, her large ears with the characteristic ear tuffs were unmistakable. What a magnificent animal! It was a first for me in this area, and definitely a lifetime first for our guests.
Hi Chris We are still talking about our trip. Disappointed to see that one of my cubs has been killed, hope the other six are ok. How is life with you all at the lodge ?
