What little cutie pies these three little lion cubs are! They are now starting to grow up, but there is still some time to enjoy their sweetness towards mum and dad. They enjoy them very much (I do feel sorry for the mum trying to get some sleep actually), but who can fault them? They are very sweet indeed.

The mother has done a great job at raising them, and she has brought them all through. That’s a great result. Our reserve is of course a perfect environment for rare and fragile animals to prosper, as seen by the reproduction of our cheetahs also, wild dogs, leopards, and all others as well. And this is the truly great news: the bigger picture. It’s heart-warming to witness the success of the reserve as a whole, a pure haven for many of Africa’s (and hence also the world’s) rarest and most endangered species.

Just visit us here at the Vuyani Safari Lodge, and your visit alone helps to maintain, and grow, the reserve. Our guests should always be pleased and proud of visiting here. If it wasn’t for them, then this reserve would not be what it is. And so our three little lion cubs are sending their many thanks to you all, and they would love to see you here 🙂

 

I do get this question very often … and the answer is: well, what it looks like on photos, just even more fun and interesting! But for our guests, it is not all about the amazing animals sightings, but of course about spending time with the Vuyani team as well. Very often friendships develop, and many of our guests stay in touch. I am proud to say that a stay here at the Vuyani Safari Lodge teaches not only about the hundreds of fascinating African animals, but also about its lovely people, its cultures, history and its quirks, but of course also about the universality of human nature and dignity. In other words, it brings people from all over the world together, and that is just fantastic! If this helps to bring about world peace, along with wildlife conservation, and I am sure it does, then this is a legacy that is above and beyond words that I know to describe it.

So here some photos that Fran, from Australia, sent us in a few days ago. They had a blast here, they got engaged here, and we are thrilled to hear that they will come back here, hopefully with friends and family.

Many thanks to Fran for sharing these lovely photos with us, it’s so heart-warming, and real. Lovely! 🙂
