They are not necessarily the biggest African animals, but represented those that were considered a real hunter’s worthy prey or “game” – the African Elephant, Cape Buffalo, Black Rhinoceros, Leopard and king of the jungle, the Lion (which of course doesn’t inhabit jungle but savanna!).

So far we have seen Impala, Duiker, Greater Kudu, Mongoose, Zebra and warthogs around the neighborhood, and yard. The house is a four bedroom, four bath two story, with a deck running around three sides of the upper story, great for wildlife viewing.

We are on the go until usually around 1:30 give or take a herd of zebras blocking the road. Crocodiles, Cape Buffalo and Hippos are plentiful. The schedule is a bit daunting, as we are up before 5 AM to get to the gate for the 6AM opening.

She’s reared abandoned baby buffalo, dik-diks, impalas, zebras, warthogs, and black rhinos, among others, but no creature has beguiled her more than elephants.

It’s the only park I have ever been to that not only have I seen all five of the Big Five (Lion, Leopard, African Buffalo, White Rhino and African Elephant) in, but seen them all on the same day. Madikwe may have been farmland once upon a time but these days it has been fully restored as an astonishing game reserve.
