Today was wonderful, three different cats in one day.

First a fantastic tracking effort by our ranger and tracker. The tracker said "the lions are in here I will walk in and see if I can find them" He only took about three steps and we heard a very loud growl. He backed up to the safety of the vehicle.' New saying "human bait - works great"

This was part of a pride and there were 25 lions there. Two big males, some females and 15 cubs from 7 months to 2 months old. Feeding frenzy over the zebra. The big males would not let anyone near and the kill and finally a cub crept in and then other lions joined in. It was an incredible scene but the noise was even better. The small cubs mewing for milk, the adult lions growling and fighting from time to time.

On the way back we saw a cheetah first one many of the group had ever seen in the wild. Then later that afternoon we saw a leopard.

Of course we saw all the normal game, elephants, giraffe, antelope.

One more full day and a morning drive then Rhino is over. Fantastic sightings and a wonderful safari.
