So this is why I clearly don’t need a dog or a guard to check on my home when I am away… 🤩 definitely the best security system in the bush!

🐦It’s hard to believe a Woodland Kingfisher is aggressively territorial with this kind of curious behaviour. Or perhaps it’s just the bird whispering ways at Singita.

A female cheetah defends her kill as a curious male approaches to investigate. Both cheetahs vocalize with distinctive chirping calls, but the interaction quickly escalates as she’s swats at him to protect her meal. 🐾

Too good to be true!

Hlambela, aptly named as “the one who swims”, is lured out of his cat comfort zone. Or into it. It’s almost like nature knew.

Smallest carnivore in Africa, the dwarf mongoose, has a mutualistic relationship with the plated lizard! While they look for insects, their sharp eyes help spot predators that could eat the plated lizard. In return, the lizard cleans up leftovers from their meals. @tay_mccurdy

Incase you have ever wondered what fearsome noise a baby crocodile makes. This little noise is actually their way of telling their mother that they are in trouble. What comes next is far less sweet.
