Big ears, curious faces and plenty of character.

Bat-eared foxes are some of the bush’s most distinctive little residents. Their enormous ears aren’t just for show; they help them pick up the sounds of insects moving underground, making them excellent hunters of termites and other small invertebrates.

Have you ever been lucky enough to spot a bat-eared fox at Mabula Private Game Reserve?

Playtime with Mum is always a little chaotic.

Queen and her little cheetah cubs are turning a simple interaction into a playful wrestling match. For these youngsters, playfighting is more than just fun; it helps them build coordination, practise their hunting skills and learn how to interact with other cheetahs.

Queen has her paws full with these energetic little ones.

Have you ever seen a cheetah cub stuck in a tree?

World Animal Day is the perfect excuse to celebrate some serious playtime.

Two of Atsile’s little cheetah cubs are busy chasing, pouncing and wrestling with each other. For young cheetahs, play is an important part of growing up, helping them develop coordination, confidence and the skills they’ll need later in life.

For now, though, it’s simply two siblings having fun.

Which cub do you think started this wrestling match?

From above, you can really see just how many hippos can gather in the water. They spend much of the day submerged to keep cool, often resting close together in pods before heading onto land to feed, usually at night.

How many hippos can you count from this view?

Isago, walking into the sunset.

The male cheetah moves quietly through the bush as the last light of the day stretches across the landscape. With his distinctive coat catching the warm glow, Isago makes for quite the silhouette.

Where do you think Isago was heading as the sun went down?
