The leopard identification project has got off to a great start and we now have identification tips for three of our resident leopards - like those shown in the images in this blog. Shareholders can view the whole guide online and download a copy if desired.
Maya has been so named as this seems to be an easily remembered shortening of "tsamaya tlasa" which is Setawana for "walk under" in reference to her habit of passing extremely close to the viewing hide at Mogorosi including passing right beneath while shareholders are sat inside!
As previously announced in the blog early December saw attempts to locate and dart some of our adult wild dogs to allow us to fit two additional animals with radio collars and replace the old collar on Two Spots, our dominant female. Shareholders and guests were invited to participate in this exciting event on the reserve.
Limpopo-Lipadi's flagship endangered species project - the reintroduction of African wild dogs to the reserve - continues to bring new opportunities to shareholders and special guests. Our shareholders were on hand to witness the release event nearly two years ago and since then have kept up to date with news, photos, tracking the pack on foot and numerous sightings whilst on the reserve. We have now arrived at the point where the radio collar on Two Spots, our alpha female, needs replacing and we will be taking the opportunity to collar one of the adult male dogs at the same time. As part of Limpopo-Lipadi's ethos of active involvement we are able to offer the chance for you to be personally involved in this exciting event!
As outlined in February's newsletter two new activities are available for visitors to the reserve: bush dinners and bush breakfasts.
