A Wild Start to the Day: Leopard Spotted
This morning, our reserve manager received an exciting camera trap alert of a leopard sighting.

This photo of a puffadder holds special meaning for us. It's not just about its cool markings or hidden talents in camouflage. What makes it really important is who took the picture - our biodiversity stewardship team.
Two years ago, they might've been scared or even harmed the snake. But now, after learning about snakes and nature through environmental education sessions, they handled the encounter calmly.
Snake sightings are common in their work. So, when they found this puffadder chilling under a rooikrans bush, they calmly admired its beauty, snapped a pic, and let it be. They even shared the photo proudly.
We're proud of their growth and how they're helping conserve nature.
