Thank you for your messages.
We saw this herd in Kruger National Park,i think the name of the pan is Vutomi.
When we visited the park last february it was impossible to reach this area because the roads were closed (after the flood 2012 and 2013).
Hope we can drive this way another time!

Lovely video matrum and pics NetEk. :clap:

Sadly Vutome dam is no longer and is not to be repaired so your video clip makes it even more special.
