Ngala Game Reserve
Staying at Ngala Game Reserve was point-blank amazing from start to finish. From the 5-star accommodations, to the amazing and varied wildlife you see in the images below. We owe so much of our incredible experience to our Ranger Lyson and our Tracker (and I will risk the misspelling) Januwadeo, pictured below. The almost telepathic way these two men communicated, tracked and found the wildlife you see below is nothing short of incredible to see in action. Much less POSITIONING YOU to SEE it. The Wild African dogs are extremely special as they are very endangered and rarely seen. The entire game reserve was notified when the pack below was spotted. The lions had, conveniently for John whose expectations were "for a kill", just dispatched a baby giraffe and were having lunch. The sounds these animals made I will never forget, and made for an incredibly close up, vivid and in-yer-face experience. Apparently brains are a delicacy for lions.
The cheetah was an out and out poser. But when you wear fur that well... flaunt it.
