World Wildlife Day

Mar 3, 20200 comments

The 3rd March is World Wildlife Day – an opportunity to celebrate the many beautiful and varied forms of wild fauna and flora.

World Wildlife Day was proclaimed by the United Nations on the 20th December 2013. It falls on the 3rd of March, the same day where back in 1973, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) was founded. World Wildlife Day is a day to celebrate and raise awareness of the world’s wild animals and plants and the multitude of benefits that their conservation provides to people.

To celebrate this day, Southern Camp Ranger Mike Brown shared a few of his personal wildlife photographs taken on Kapama Private Game Reserve in 2019.

A Small Surprise on a Big Buffalo

5 December 2017
We watched in awe as around 150 Cape buffalo appeared out of the tree line and made their way down to the water’s edge. The group became louder as they pushed their way through to find an open place to drink. Many oxpeckers flew down to drink as well.

Day of the Jackal

My guests certainly did not expect to see a black-backed jackal and its pups. Normally the Big 5 are high up on the list of animals guests would prefer to see and very often the other species are overlooked.

Spa Safari – A perfect combination

22 November 2017
Kapama Private Game Reserve situated in the Greater Kruger area not only has four 5-star luxury lodges but also houses two state-of-the-art Wellness Centres and Spas. Besides indulging in lush African inspired spa therapy treatments, as Kapama is a Big 5 Private Game Reserve, seeing lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard and rhino over a 2-day safari is very possible.
