Sango Safari Camp Review – Client Feedback by Liselle Raath
Liselle’s clients stayed at Sango Safari Camp in the Moremi region of the Okavango Delta. Hi Liselle, We had such a great time!!! The first day we had 18 elephants outside our tent!

Cannibalistic Lions photographed in Botswana
An interesting article from the Africa Geographic surfaced recently about the strange, cannibalistic behaviour of a group of lions spotted near Mombo Camp in the Moremi area of Botswana.

Loss of Habitat Means Loss of Lions
David Bristow, environmental writer and author of Africa’s Finest, aptly describes the tragedy that would strike the African continent should it become barren of lions. “Indeed, the entire energy of the planet would be diminished in some way – and so would we, without the one other species against which we have always found the [...]
