Finally managed to catch up with this new trip report Jan! You have had so many lovely sightings already! Awesome Jackal, Honey Badger, PCG, beautiful Lion, Hartebeest and more gorgeous Lions! Your pictures are, as usual, fantastic! :clap:

So sad to see so many dead Eland though!

Looking forward to your next episode! :thumbs_up:

You captured these lions beautifully Jan I just love the way they look more like playful innocent kittys instead of the king of the jungle
