Not everybody is that lucky. It can also happen that you see absolutely nothing and you must not change the Rands into foreign currency. For SAs it is expensive. Just think about a family of four.

From a 2012 ossendryver story:

So I get to the viewing deck and I see a family busy looking excited and taking photos upon photos.
I remembered from Kruger Sightings that the previous week there had been a pair of mating leopards seen from the camp.

Could this be them? Could that family be watching the mating leopards?

One question would answer it all!

"Hi, can you see anything interesting?"

"YES! Mating Leopards!!"

So I quickly set up my binoculars and tripod and I let them point it at the leopards as it was hard for me to spot it.

"There look through it now, you should see the sighting of a life time!"

I look through and can you believe it? 2 leopards!!
From skukuza deck!!

The one got up and moved a bit closer so I got my camera out and called my cousins.
This was truly the best time I have ever had in the camp when I'd rather stay in than go out.

Again a bit cropped as it was on the other side of the river, but what a sighting of a life time it truly was!

I also couldn't resist filming it!

9pm last night
Spotted Hyena outside our unit 77 inside Skukuza
We followed it all the way to the shop, while warning people.
We drove to the gate and alerted that Gate guard about it.
