Reporting Date: 7.11.2012
Daniel with his two guest set off into Mara Game Reserve with expectations of seeing at least a cheetah. This was a special request from the junior in the family and they agreed that nature as usual will work miracles. The drive to the cheetah country was great with lots of common game sighting but the pick was the sighting of a lioness having a snack from a baby warthog.
This surpassed even the sighting of a cheetah that they later came across near Talek river. They watched the big cat crush ,chew the tender bones and swallow easily till the end of the meal. Nothing was left behind for the scavenging family.
