Wildlife Blog – September 2022
September was another exciting and busy month at Savanna, which meant we all had plenty of time in the bush and we were able to observe some incredible changes that have taken place, as the lion and leopard dynamics have completely shifted once again. September is...
Wildlife Blog – November 2021
Our rains usually begin during October and November, but this year we did not have much in October at all, and we thought that we might be in for a dry season. The first few weeks of November also did not look very promising, but a cold front came through in the third...
