Recently had an opportunity to go on a bush safari at Kapama Reserve - a private game reserve near the world renowned kruger national park in south africa.
the forest was unlike the visuals one sees on tv-of wide open grasslands (savannas) with hordes of wild animals. this was more like an indian jungle , low lying dense trees with thick bushes, termite hills.
during the safari on customised land rovers we saw lions, zebra, wild boar, giraffe, impala and the white rhinos. a pride of 3 young lionesses seemed to have no fear and posed at a distance of some 10 ft away from the vehicles. also at a water hole came across mother and baby rhino.
the safari was guided by a reserve ranger with a tracker sitting in front.
we missed seeing a leopard..scanned all trees..probably a future visit destined.
