Hi All,

our 4th trip to Kruger is fast approaching, cant wait to get there. We reach south africa on the 25th of may and will head straight to the park from the airport and will stay there untill the 9th of june.
I would like to know what the sightings are like in the park at the moment and which areas are good for cats at present? Looks like the park is still very green and the bush fairly thick. Also, have noticed that the public sightings gallery is updated only every couple of weeks as opposed to weekly like before. any particular reason for this? Even the sightings forum seems relatively quiet. But, in any case i am sure we are gonna have a great time just being there for over 2 weeks.
Staying at the these camps
25th may Skukuza
26-27 Berg-en-dal
28-29 Lower sabie
30-3rd june Satara
4-6 Motswari Private Game reserve
7 Satara
8 Skukuza

Ghostdogg I hope you will have good sightings during your upcoming trip later this month

thanks grantmissy......looking forward to the trip now not long to go.
ill try and post daily sightings as fequently as i can.

ghostdogg,

Sightings in an area can change from hour to hour. It's almost impossible to predict.
You will be in some productive areas, am sure you will have some great sightings when you are there.

Yoda is quite right, it all depends if the animals decide to show themselves the day you visit them!!!
It is very difficult to say for definite what you will or won't see (as I'm sure you know!!)

Having said that, the areas you are visiting are usually very good for game viewing.........including cats and dogs.

Saw doggies near Nkuhlu Picnic site, in January, and a lovely leopard seen on 2 separate occasions at the junction of the S1 and H12.

Hope you have a wonderful trip.
