Thanks so much Bushcraft,

for an amazing trip report - That last hyena / wild dog sequence is brilliantly captured and you had it all alone \O \O \O

Your leopard sightings are always outstanding - I wish I will have your luck one day :yes: :yes: :yes:

And totally right when in the park the time passes by sooooo quickly :-(

Once again thanks a lot and until the next time and greetings to your ladies 0/0

The dogs were wondering what the SP vehicle was doing on the bridge lol lol

Thanks for sharing your 2000 leopard report with us lol
Shot Alf, I wish your leopard count was correct though =O: =O:

Ja, the car's a kak colour, but it works in KNP ;-)

Another great trip! Thanks for sharing! :ty:
Thanks Flutts \O

We have seen wild dogs take on hyena in KNP before and once at Imfolozi, but every time there were more dogs than hyena

As usual a phenomenal number of predators ^Q^ ^Q^

When's the next trip?
Thanks PJL X#X

Ya, plenty predators to be seen in August/September in our experience

Next trip O** Work issues, Hawkeyes starts Varsity, finances, etc so KNP may have to be put on ice for awhile :-(

A major disagreement =O:

The dogs bullied the hyena, probably due to their numbers \O

Smashing shots, lovely the one of the hyenas coming then running! =O:

Thank you so much again, Bushy. Your reports are not just a feast for the eyes but really well-written and entertaining! :ty: :ty: :ty:

X#X
Thanks RP X#X

Ja, screaming for backup :yes: We have seen dogs push hyena around a few times, but always when the dogs have the numbers \O

Entertaining =O: I write what happens, so we must be a faulty family =O:

Interesting to see how that one wild dog eyed you intensly :shock:

And what is that bird that shared the puddle with the shrieking hyena
and still being totally nonchalant about the commotion around it?

:ty: for taking the time to share your trip with us. A pleasure as always.
And we're used to your speed by now anyways :twisted:
Thanks Mel \O

It was a good end to our trip X#X The hamerkop in the puddle ignored the commotion 0-

I hope it wasn't posted too fast 0:

A few bye bye lions. You certainly did not leave the park "empty-handed" this time \O

Thanks for taking the trouble to share the trip with us in order to make us all :-0 :-0 ;-)

0/0 to the Cow and the Rats and of course to "il bello biondo platino" =O:
Thanks Lisbeth \O

The hyena were outnumbered so they headed for the hills and a puddle lol

I'm not sure about the "il bello" part, but correct on the "biondo platino" part =O: X#X

Thanks Pumbaa \O

It was a good trip, probably our 2nd/3rd best Kruger trip ever, I just wish that we had found cheetah also

Time in Kruger passes way too quickly and I wish I could spend more time in the park each year, but I assume many feel the same ;-)
