No it is just around the corner. so many friends on the forum helps time to fly.

Still no sign of the doggies?

Are giraffes seen in KTP during early November? I've read on here that they can be seen, but I'm not sure where abouts in the park and at what time of year.

Yes. Up around Mata Mata usually -- down the Auob as far as Kamqua -- and usually all year round although sometimes only early morning and late afternoon.

P@m just as a matter of interest...........we saw two end February down at Kamfersboom!!! That was a first for us!!!

so South

We were there last October and stayed at Mata-Mata for 2 days .Saw them each day near 13th and 14th Borehole .

that is normal
and a little bit more South... around Rooibrak/Montrose....

AM we saw the first tracks just after Munro..........and then saw the two walking down the river just before Kamfersboom..........just could not believe it!!!!

and soon... to Upington

@htid,

The giraffes normally hang out near Mata-Mata and the reason being that is where the boma is where they were kept when they were relocated back into the park. Any specie tends to stay in the area where they have been put in a boma.

Tracks of the giraffe has been found as close as south of Houmoed (Where the dune road meets the Auob Riverbed) and they have also been see just north of Kij Kij waterhole.

maybe soon in the Nossob river
but not so many trees
