Another great day at Mala Mala. Between the vehicles we had terrific sightings.

Lioness separated from the pride. Agitated and searching for her family one vehicle followed her back to the pride. All the other lions came out to welcome her back with the little Cubs very exuberant. The pride had killed a buffalo. They remove the stomach contents and cover them with dirt to mask the odor from other animals.

A herd of about 50 Cape Buffalo were heading to the river. Vehicle went ahead to the river and parked to watch the buffalo arrive. Great sight they get so excited and are fun to watch.

Three elephants, mom and two little ones. When we arrived one of the youngs ones was laying down. You do not see that much as elephants sleep standing up. Another little elephant climbed up on the back of the elephant on the ground. So cute. Them mom broke off a huge branch and carried it with her " fast food to go" I guess.

They found the mating lions. One of the two males we saw last year that were so skinny. Now they are fat and happy building a nice pride. We did not see them mate but will probably see them again.

The newbies went in search of zebra and had a wonderful sighting and also saw great ostrich. Then saw a lion cub climb a termite mound and then he posed for them

Not often seen but found this morning a honey badger and two striped jackals.
Great morning - what will this afternoon bring?
