Thanks for all the comments everyone
We decided to go to Melkvlei to stretch our legs, and on the way there we saw this white backed vulture near the waterhole
As well as these springbok ........ Possible cheetah food
Returning south, it wasn’t too long before we saw the trio back on the road

They were certainly on a mission
They moved onto the side of the road again, once again disappeared into the dunes, this time to the east
We waited to see if they would return, but after about 30 minutes we decided to call it a morning and head back to Rooiputs

However, our cheetah morning was far from over
At Kij Kij, this lone male near the waterhole
He was looking a little distressed as he wondered around the area calling incessantly
