What could have happened to this wild dog’s fourth leg?

Spotted along the S25 in Kruger National Park, this remarkable African wild dog seems to be getting on with life despite having only three legs!

Could it have been a crocodile attack, an injury while hunting, or something completely different?

What’s even more fascinating is how an animal that relies so much on speed and endurance can survive such a serious disability.

What do you think happened, and how much of its survival do you think is thanks to the pack? 👇

The wildest thing I’ve ever captured on camera!

An Southern African Python swallowing an impala in Kruger National Park! 🤯🔥

Nature never ceases to amaze me!

The White Lion of Kruger! 🤍

📅 26 February 2026 | 21:39
📍 Approximately 7.8 km east of the H6/H1-3 junction, near Satara.

I was fortunate enough to see this magnificent white lion earlier that morning, and later that evening, we encountered him again during a night drive from Satara Rest Camp.

What makes this sighting particularly special is that this was reportedly the last time he was seen accompanied by a young male lion.

An unforgettable encounter with one of Kruger’s most remarkable lions! 🤍🦁

One of the most iconic sounds of the African bush!

The mighty African Fish Eagle, throwing its head back and letting out that unmistakable call! 😍

For many of us, this is the sound of Africa. No matter how many times I hear it, it never gets old.

Does the call of the African Fish Eagle also remind you of the bush?

Size doesn’t matter when you’ve got courage! 😅

Watch this fearless Fork-tailed Drongo repeatedly dive-bomb a massive Martial Eagle! Despite the enormous difference in size, this little bird wasn’t backing down.

The Martial Eagle, one of Africa’s largest and most powerful eagles, seemed to have no choice but to tolerate the harassment!

Never underestimate the attitude of a Fork-tailed Drongo! 🙌

Soon, this beautiful sound will be filling the African bush once again!

The unmistakable calls of the Woodland Kingfishers are one of my favourite sounds of summer. It won’t be long before these beautiful summer visitors return to Kruger. I can’t wait!

This morning in Joburg, I heard the unmistakable “Piet-my-vrou” call for the first time this season.

It immediately took me back to this lucky sighting one afternoon last December around Berg-en-Dal. It’s not often you actually get to see the bird behind that familiar summer call!

The Piet-my-vrou is back… summer has officially announced itself!
