"Lions, leopards, and rhinos, oh my!"
It’s been awhile since we’ve posted anything here because the last few weeks have been spent jumping around Egypt and South Africa. We just finished a 6 day self-drive Safari in Kruger National Park in search of the “Big 5;” Elephant, Rhino, Buffalo, Lion, and Leopard. It took us a couple days to find all five but we saw them! We decided to do one night safari with a guide and got lucky with the leopard sighting. Kruger is home to 147 mammal species, 507 birds, 114 reptiles, 49 fish, and 34 amphibians. It is approximately 20,000 sq km and is one of the largest game reserves in all of Africa. The best way to describe Kruger is with photos, so bon appétit:

And exactly, how close were you to these animals??!!!! I hope you were using a telephoto lens! :)
Those are some awesome shots. That is a pretty cool pic of the lion walking down the center of the road.
Dont judge me but I keep looking at these pics and want to start singing music from the lion king.
