JUNE 2013 "LIONS & LEOPARDS of Mala Mala" WILD4 photo safari

Just back from the "Lions and Leopards of Mala Mala" photo tour and not only did we visit the Big Cat Reserve, Kruger National Park and Mala Mala, we also added on the 2 night Reptile and Vulture extension. This trip still offers the best variety of species and locations.

Helen and Linda - thanks very much for joining us on safari it was a pleasure to have met you both and to see the passion you both have for the natural world !!

Many thanks to all the staff at the different lodges and to our rangers, Doug at the Big Cat Reserve and Brendan at Mala Mala, without you guys these shots would not be possible - thanks very much !!

Enjoy !!
