Rooiputs February Males

I saw this Cheetah in May 2017, between Rooiputs and Kij Kij (they are two different ones but I could not get both on the same picture)

About 5km before Grootkolk, on our way back south, I spotted a cheetah in the riverbed, a bit too far away for our cameras.

We followed her as she walked parallel with the road, until eventually she came nearer and crossed the road in front of us.

She then continued on her way while we followed.

She eventually settled down under a tree and we decided to carry on after waiting for about 45 minutes for her to get up
The trip back, unlike the road, was quiet sightings wise, but we did get to see thus rooi hartebeest posing for us in golden sunlight( with a dove stuck on it' tail ;-) )


God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

Rooiputs February Males

13 June 2018, 5 km south of Melkvlei

About 5 kilometres before the picnic spot we spotted two cheetahs up on a dune.

As normal, on this trip, our sighting was short lived before they decided to go back up onto the top of the dunes, to use the elevation to get a better view of their surroundings.
