[Katja]

Thanks all

Here are pics of some carnivores we found

This BBJ was really curious and we were so lucky, as it was the last sighting before returning to Tamboti camp that day.









During our trips to KNP we have never seen lion cubs, but in 2012 we were lucky to see these youngsters



One of them was interested in the cars and came a bit closer







You should have heard the ohhhs and ahhhs from our little one

I can believe the ooohs and the aaahs about the cute cub -O

Great close ups of the jackal as well! Nice lighting on the them.

Wow, your BBJ pics are great!! We never seem to have luck with them - too far away and on the move. The cubs are too cute!

[Lisbeth]

You are goood with that camera of yours, Katja Cute LO close up

Wow Katja - these are stunning pics and the lighting is so good.

The close ups of the BBJ are fantastic.

If I may ask - is that a close up photo or is it cropped?

[Bushcraft]

I can imagine the ohhs and ahhs from your junior Did you join in
