Footprints of Hope
Born from a sheer passion and desire to make a lasting difference to plights in need, the team of FOOTPRINTS OF HOPE (&Beyond and Africa Foundation, together with Gordon Gilbert) developed a challenge to achieve something truly valuable in the areas of wildlife conservation and sustainable community development. A love of the wild and the surrounding communities, as well as a heartfelt concern for the challenges in which each face pulled together a team with a common goal and a “mission impossible” plan of action: an 11 day awareness walk that’s all about empowering communities and enabling conservation.

Upon reaching one of the water holes we stopped to look at a crested serpent eagle. In the meanwhile we heard another serpent eagle calling from the vicinity, all of a sudden we saw it...

Now the three lionesses have got young cubs about three and two months respectively. Although it is difficult to spot...

After a short flight from Maun airport, we landed at Nxabega airstrip where we enjoyed a lot of entertainment which kick started its official use. It was more of a cultural show as there was a lot of traditional dancing and singing by the Nxabega staff and management. The previous airstrip wasn't used for a long time as it's always inundated with...

We had never expected to see this leopardess so close from us calling for her cubs! Soon after following the "Alarm calls" given by the monkey, we reached over a turn where someone had already spotted these leopards wandering in the bushes. We had lost all our hope for seeing this leopardess as it is a very shy animal and having known that she...

When we first approached them they looked at us for a few seconds before resuming their tussle. This tussle went on for a few minutes before walked away into the...

It was our continuous 9th drive in the park and we always used to miss this sighting by a few minutes! As we heard a tiger growl at a distance as soon as we entered the park, we decided to stay there and wait for it to come out. During our long wait of two hours, we heard spotted deer alarm calls a several times, and also tigers growl a few times again....
