Big crossing at Sala’s on the Sand River

HerdTracker update 05 Aug 2015 by The Safari Collection

Hi Carel,

We saw a big crossing at Sala’s on the Sand River yesterday morning and the plains around Sala’s south of the Sand River are full of wildebeest.

There are lots of small herds of between 1-10,000 between the Sand River Gate and Keekerok Lodge along the south of the reserve but the biggest concentration is around Kifuka ya Topi which is packed with probably around 200,000-300,000 wildebeest and zebra.

Cheers,
Mark
