Dwarf in the Park today, confirms dryness in the South...8 lions at Sabie High level bridge in riverbed, and leopard in riverbed along nearby Salitje Road.

Was in Yesterday's Lowvelder that Crocodile River at record low point at Malelane.

This is manageable, as water can be released from the dams, but a new thing after a long wet cycle, with farmers pumping water out and expanding over those two decades... O-/

Next year will be the test...hopefully 0()

:-? I found that normally productive "waterholes" because they were dry lacked any action -O- One can't spend every day on the Sand and Sabie rivers as it's already chaos with traffic -O-
