Day 9 Sunday 18 November : Satara -> Crocodile Bridge.
S100 again, Then along the S41 to N'wanedsi and the S37 and S35 to Orpen Dam. Then the H10 to Lower Sabie.
Near the ablution block an exquisite Marbled Emperor Moth.
Some very strange clouds along the S100.
Some birds at one of the puddles.
And a Wartie.
Breakfast at N'wanedsi and a visit to the lookout.

Whilst I certainly enjoy seeing wildlife at the fences at camp it is disheartening to think that eventually the Hyena that frequents the fence may be shot as it becomes a menace .I know the park always wants to be tourist friendly but wish they would post a few pics by the fences of a dead hyena to show the tourists what happens after they become a menace .

The problem is that they don't care what happens to the animal once they have left the park; they really don't think that they could possibly have any bearing on the future of the animal, after all, what harm could a couple of chop bones do?RogerFraser wrote:100 XBluTuna wrote: This is a minor niggle for me, the one that really gets me is idiots feeding the Hyaenas at the fence.
