Males of about the same size and age will engage in sparring contests. They approach each other slowly, lock horns and push back and forth until one gives up. Usually, no serious injuries result. Occasionally, 2 combatants will lock horns in such a way that they could not disengage, dying with their horns together.

Unfortunately we lost a young bull in the fight.

Nature is always interesting.

2024 Specials!!!!

Never would we have thought this will happen to us, and in a few minutes, our farm was on fire. 80% of the farm burnt down.
The wind was not in our favor at all and the flames was getting closer to the houses and the lodge, but we thank God for being with us every step of the way, and everyone acting as quick as they could to come and help us. We are so grateful for that. May we never experience a situation like this again.

There is no denying that warthogs are not the most aesthetically pleasing of Africa’s wildlife. Large, flat heads covered in ‘warts’, four sharp tusks, sparse hair – they are not likely to win any beauty contests. However, there is a toughness and tenacity to these little animals that we cannot help but admire.

They do have some odd habits – entering burrows backwards, trotting with erect tails, and bending their forelegs to graze – but their undeniable charisma will leave a memorable mark on your safari.

We were a little quiet for some time, luckily not because we had no work, but because we were (and still are) extremely busy hunting with all our international clients.

Had great, successful hunts and we are really greatful for that.

At 3 to 4 years of age Sable males are evicted from female social groups and live in bachelor herds until they reach sexual maturity at 5 years. Mating occurs from May to July, birthing occurs from January to April.

A dewlap, present in both sexes of Eland, grows long and pendulous in bulls, which also turn darker and develop a thick, black forehead tuft. The horns are straight with one or two screwlike spirals; horns are usually longer and thinner in females.

Elands are both browsers and grazers. They feed mainly on green grass during the rains and then switch to the foliage of dicots during the dry season. Both sexes use their horns to break off branches too high to grasp with their lips and tongue.

The horns of a mature bull kudu have two and a half twists, and, if straightened, would reach an average length of 120cm. However, they may occasionally have three full twists and the record length is a whopping 187.64cm. The horns do not begin to grow until the bull reaches 6–12 months, twisting once at around two-years-of-age and not reaching the full two-and-a-half twists until the age of six.

The bushbuck is an antelope with geometrically shaped white patches or spots on the most mobile parts of its body — the ears, chin, tail, legs, and neck. Male bushbucks have horns, which are between 10 and 20 inches long and grow straight back. At 10 months, young males sprout strongly twisted horns that form the first loop of a spiral at maturity.

A large and powerful bovine, the African Buffalo reaches shoulder heights of up to 1.5 m and a mass of 750 kg. Both sexes have horns, those of the bulls are characterised by a heavy boss and upward curved horns.

It is said that Buffalo look at you as if you owe them money, and this is an appropriate description if you should ever come across them on foot in the bush.

The sable antelope gets its name from the Russian word for “black,” though only the males of the species are truly black. Female and young sable are a rich chestnut color with white facial markings, as well as a white belly and rump.

Buffalos are unpredictable

Thanks to their unpredictability, African buffalos, unlike other species, have never been tamed. This, in addition to its massive size, lethal set of horns, and absence of predators, makes it a wild species worthy of respect for its position in the animal world.

Is it a bird, is it a plane… no, it’s the world’s highest show-jumper and the award goes to the champion klipspringer! Despite their dainty size of just 1 meter tall, they can jump as high as eight metres in the air.

Klipspringers can easily leap over the world’s tallest mammal on Earth today, the great giraffe. With no comparison at all, the highest human high jump on record is only eight feet (2.4 m).

Fun fact;
On average wildebeest spend around 4.5 h sleeping each day. This sleep is comprised of both non-REM (4.2 h) and REM (0.28 h).
