This photo was posted onto the Kariega Game Reserve Facebook page by Johanita Hugo and was taken at Kariega Game Reserve South Africa on a late afternoon game drive. Great shot Johanita! Caracal are shy and elusive creatures and when spotted there is hardly time to take a decent shot.

Our photo selection this week had to be of Thandi, as she appears to be healing so very well. We are also happy to see her looking on with a mouthful of grass and caked in some good old mud (they do this to protect themselves from the sun and also from insects and parasites.)

We were very excited to see this great picture taken by Jason Loest, one of the Kariega Game Reserve wildlife managers. Thank you Jason!
Kariega was excited to have recently released two servals on the game reserve!
