It pays to chat to the camp manager!

We spent four days at Shimuwini - the first 3 days we had some sightings of elephant, buffalo, fish eagle, hippos but no cats. We then chatted to Johann, the Shimuwini camp manager, and he told us that he saw leopard spoor near the beginning of the first river loop on his morning walk that day. The next morning (our last morning there) we go to the river loop and voilà - there was a leopard cub sitting on a rock looking at us!!
