Sooooo flying cheetah I would like to know what were you doing on the no-entry road since the angle that you took of the hyenas is definitely already of the main road and on the no-entry road...he he he......Naughty naughty lucky the traffic cop was a few km's further down the road!

I was in the park 25th and 26th June 2011. I also saw hyena close to Skukuza but what really amazed me is on the road to Skukuza from Phabeni i spotted 2 Ostriches. In the 80 odd times i have been to the park i have never seen Ostrich in the southern part of the park. I am lead to believe that ostrich are normally found more North of the park. Can anyone enlighten me or give me more information regarding this.

Thank You :wall: :big_eyes: :huh:

Hi RoyCraig, end of April somewhere we saw 3 ostriches between Crocodile Bridge and Lower-Sabie and not for the first time either. Don't have any other info but it doesn't seem so rare.
