🌿 Today, we honour the life of Dr Jane Goodall — a pioneer, conservationist, and inspiration to generations across the globe.

Her unwavering dedication to wildlife and the environment reshaped the way we understand not only chimpanzees, but also our shared responsibility to protect the natural world. Through her compassion and tireless efforts, she showed us that every individual can make a difference.

At Critter Chronicles, we carry forward her legacy with gratitude and respect. May her work continue to spark curiosity, kindness, and action in all of us.

💚

Die hervatting van plaaslike teengifproduksie word as ’n belangrike mylpaal beskou, aangesien dit van kritieke belang is vir die behandeling van slang-, spinnekop- en skerpioenbyt in Suid-Afrika.

🤣🐍 Jac-Louis played the ultimate prank at Amanzi Wildsfees – inviting Doccie Shields onto stage under the completely innocent excuse of… well, let’s just say he “forgot” to mention the puff adder. The second Doccie spotted that snake, it was a firm “Nope!”, a nervous laugh, and an instant exit stage left.

Thanks to Amanzi Private Game Reserve and the amazing Free State crowd for an unforgettable weekend. You guys made Amanzi Wildsfees one for the books! 🐊🌿

🎥 EPISODE 6: JAGUAR JOL & BRANNAS SE BRAKE 🐆
Jac-Louis en Oom Eddie klim sommer reguit in die jaguar se hok…
Hulle speel, lag en lyk asof hulle ’n nuwe huisdier oorweeg.
Mnr Brannas? Hy staan ’n veilige paar meter weg en sê,
“Ek’s lief vir diere… maar ek’s nie ’n snack nie.” 😅

Dis waagmoed teenoor wysheid – jy besluit self wie gewen het.

🎥 EPISODE 5: MNR BRANNAS & DIE MINI-WOESTYNLUISTER 🦊
Mnr Brannas ontmoet sy nuwe “bosmaatjie” – ‘n fennec fox.
Hy’s oortuig dis ’n woestyn-chihuahua met bluetooth ore en ‘n attitude groter as sy lyf.

Van sand tot skerp geselsies, dié twee hou mekaar besig met ‘n mengsel van nuuskierigheid en chaos.
En ja… Brannas probeer natuurlik om hom huis toe te vat. 🙄

Kyk self hoekom hierdie klein vosie die groot ster van die dag is!

🌿🦎 WILDLIFE WARRIOR IN NEED! 📱💚

Meet one of our biggest supporters – a young gent with a HUGE love for nature and all things wild. His favourite pastime? Watching wildlife YouTube videos (especially Critter Chronicles 😉) and learning everything he can about the animals we share this planet with.

Sadly, his phone was stolen and he’s now without his prized screen-time — no more crocs, no more snakes, no more Brannas antics. 💔 His mom is doing her best, but things are tight, and they’re hoping to find a second-hand phone he can use to get back to what he loves most — learning about wildlife.

They’ve managed to put aside R500 and are looking for a decent second-hand phone with a screen big enough for his eyes (they don’t see so lekker anymore). Nothing fancy, just something that works and can bring the wild back into his world.

And here's the exciting part... 🐍🌿
This young wildlife warrior will be getting a VIP behind-the-scenes tour of Critter Chronicles on Tuesday! We can’t wait to spoil him with some wild encounters and give him a day to remember!

If you’ve recently upgraded and have a working phone lying around, please consider donating or selling it for their small budget. You’ll be helping one of SA’s most loyal wildlife fans stay inspired and connected — and yes, he’ll be able to follow our adventures again too!

Let’s rally the bushveld spirit for this young eco-legend. 🌍🦅

🎥 EPISODE 4: MNR BRANNAS & DIE TUINSLANG AFFAIRE 🐍🚿
Isabel is terug… en mnr Brannas? Hy’s oortuig sy is 'n tuinslang wat net bietjie attitude het.
"Sy byt nie, sy’s net nat agter die ore," sê hy… terwyl sy hom aankyk soos 'n snack met 'n doodmaakblik.

Dis ‘n liefde-haat verhouding met meer kronkels as ‘n nat tuinslang op ‘n Sondag.

Kyk nou en besluit self: is dit vriendskap… of ‘n slinkse plan?

🚚 Wild on Wheels 🐾
Ever seen a bakkie full of blesbok, blue wildebeest and friends cruising through the bush? It’s not your average road trip it’s conservation in motion.

From careful loading to safe offloading, every step we take is part of a bigger plan. Proper game management means healthier herds, balanced ecosystems and protecting our natural heritage for the next generation.

Because nature doesn’t need chaos. It needs commitment.

🎥 EPISODE 3: MNR BRANNAS & ISABEL 🐍💥

Mnr Brannas besluit toe hy’s 'n reptiel-whisperer...

Dis ‘n dans van draaie, ‘n bietjie gil en ’n hele lot gesanik van mnr Brannas wat d**k hy’s nou in liefde (of in gevaar – dis soms dieselfde ding).

Kyk nou – jy wil nie die slang stories tweedehands hoor nie. 😏🐍
