Our rarest sighting was a Cape Clawless Otter at the Lower Sabie low level bridge in March 2010. Although the location is apparently not rare for them, it was the first time I had ever seen one in Kruger. ;-)

Well, you've seen just about everything else, so there has to be something elusive to keep you going back! :twisted:

I saw a CCO on the S1, just past Nyamundwa dam in a little stream...
My kiekies aren't as good as your Flutts-but still proof that the sighting did take place...

If it wasn't for the traffic, you guys would get it right to force me to go south. O/

Great sightings everyone!!! X#X


Sometimes it’s not until you don’t see what you want to see, that you truly open your eyes.

If you steer clear of holidays and weekends then there is almost no traffic...
Take chance and go south and decide for yourself...

Heksie, you don't understand. I even avoid the north during holidays. Out of holidays I generally stick to the low maintenance roads, then still get upset if I see another car. O**

I don't get that many sightings, but at least I am on my own when I do get one. \O
