Nimble Sibuye!

Leopards may be famous climbers, but seeing the speed with which they can carry extra weight up a tree is always special. Now her meal is safe in the branches and away from the ground dwellers.

Silvan Safari guide quolani and tracker EllyMzila were there with guests to witness this moment.

Swipe left and take a tour through Leadwood suite.

Named after the trees that surround it, our family suite has two bedrooms connected by an open-air deck. Plenty of space to relax while immersed in the Sabi Sand.

Sound on for this one!

Elly and Quolani found this pack of wild dogs after they had travelled north from the south-eastern Sabi Sand. The dogs soon turned their attention to a lone hyena standing in a small waterhole, snapping and agitating it from the edge before eventually moving on.

What an extraordinary interaction for our guests to witness.

Have a question about the sighting? Leave it below for our guides and trackers.

Xidulu’s cub, now and then.

Swipe to see how much this little one has grown since April.

Leopard cubs can be incredibly difficult to find, and no sighting is ever guaranteed. We had not managed to photograph either of Xidulu’s cub again until now, which made this a very welcome update.

Tracking one family led us to another. What a beautiful coincidence.

After spending a couple of hours tracking Thlalamba and her cubs, Claytonherb_safariguide and the team followed her tracks towards a termite mound. They got back into the vehicle and made their way over to investigate.

Instead of finding the leopards, they discovered a hyena den with two young cubs, the newest members of the Djuma Clan. We have not seen the clan with cubs for some time, so finding their den site was quite special.

A very welcome surprise and two little faces we hope to see much more of.

How striking is the contrast?

Silvan Safari trackers EllyMzila and quolani captured this contrast, from the Nkuhuma Pride feeding on a buffalo to the unmistakable crunch of bone between a hyena’s jaws as vultures gather nearby.

Lions influence prey populations. Hyenas and vultures help recycle what remains, returning nutrients to the landscape.

Every wild animal has a special place in this ecosystem.
