Some people just do not respect the animals
I wonder why they go to a wildlife park
Great pics of the drinking giraffe

like Liz I love the Giraffe drinking, and the little Suricate... so confident, it can't do the sentry
like too the two horned
one of the Impalas seems to be a fawn with all these spots

More great pics Dewi!!
I have to say that if I heard of a cheetah sighting at Pilanesberg I would stick around as there is apparently only one left!
Stupid people with the ellies!

Thanks Lis, Nan, PRWIN & Flutterby.
Fluts, it makes me wonder if there was anything there in the first place as only the "first" car supposedly saw it. Hoax maybe? Glad we ignored it even more now.
Is there a reason for only one Cheetah left? Lions? or habitat unsuitable? Lack of enough prey for them?

Speak of the devil!! A cheetah was seen this morning at the intersection of Ntshwe and Kubu!
Still trying to find out the reason for the decline in numbers.

I've also looked into this a bit, but the last entry I could find was one male and one female in 2009, so a bit old. The male has a scarred face, the female was seen by one of the rangers.
