This is the final Mapula Lodge video from my set of four that I've been blogging in my recent blog posts. This final video covers lion tracking from Mapula Lodge. For the remainder of the Mapula Lodge lion videos, click on the appropriate link below:
Mapula Lodge Lion Tracking Video
I often discuss how important dedicated tracking can be for finding predators and Mapula Lodge staff match anyone in this department. Quite often the guide and the tracker both go on foot to follow a predator’s trail.
On a couple of occasions clients of The Wild Source have been asked if they would like to drive the vehicle and be part of the team for dedicated tracking. In this video I was guiding a group of six and took the wheel as head guide Dicks Tsima and tracker Simon pursued lions.
As we followed one trail another vehicle tracked a separate trail and we all met up where the lions had come to drink and re-group. We then successfully tracked down the three Mapula Boys and one female.
I hope you enjoyed this set of Mapula Lodge Lion videos. Coming up next - a series of leopard videos.
