Still got a few SANParks to do cheetah2111 but have been very lucky with them around the H10/s122 intersection in KNP

Four sightings in this area :D

Haven't heard of seval sightings in other parks C2111, but that does not mean anything.

In fact that is a good idea.

Has anyone seen s serval in another SANPark.

KG says thay are in KTP, but rare. No sightings there for a while.

Mapungubwe, and Mokala?

Brilliant Saraf :clap: :clap:
Perhaps one day a Mite will prove us wrong and have a serval sighting in A sanpark other than Krugz!

Was busy with the pivot on one of the oats fields and guess what comes strolling out of the grass. . A very relaxed Serval hunting mice! Was brilliant to watch it go about its business. 8)

:yaya: FC. Yes it was actually a big surprise as I have never seen one in that area (close to dogs and houses).
The fact that it was so relaxed was quite peculiar.

We saw this little guy in 2008 on the h10 road near Lower Sabie. He was amazing and allowed us to follow him for a while along the road!
