Scenes like this I just cannot cope with!!! This animals
infliction's are just not natural!!!

My opinion about the punishment, to said perpetrators,
of a similar hideous scenario, on other forum, got my
knuckles rapped for that!!!

To see animals suffer the natural way is already to much
to cope with, let alone un- natural abuse!!!!

No,........this is just not right to see!!!

We immediately drove to Orpen to report the matter.

Hey, 'possie!

This is a tough one! Normally if I find a small semi-alive victim I finish it off myself using my vehicle...(Reptiles, birds, small mammals etc.) Don't know if that's illegal or unethical? but there we go...

Had an almost identical experience with a nyala hit by a car near Pafuri Border Post many years ago, same shivering etc. and was fortunate to be able to report directly to the ranger in person, as she was sharing Teba with us. I was thinking of leading them to the site of the accident, but sommer got a ride on the bakkie to show them...well done Sandra! And it was put down.

The point is, I would suggest in such a case go directly to the nearest picnic spot/gate camp, whichever is closest, and make sure it is reported, and listen to the radio/telephone/cellphone conversation. They shouldn't mind...

I know it's a schlepp, but one needs to follow up to make sure that the message has got through!

I had been in the park 5 minutes and spotted this. I should have driven back to Croc Bridge and reported it, but my holiday had just started, so I didn’t want to get involved in a drama immediately, besides it’s not rocket science and if SANParks actually put a little effort in; they could control this type of thing themselves

BC I just drove past, decided it was not worth getting mad and spoiling my holiday, Like you say if SP drive around a bit and don't rely on the public this wont happen. I think it's time that a lion or leopard take some one out again. Just hope I.m around when it happens to get the shots. and I wont report it either, they will just see it on the news.

You cannot always blame the foreigners.
