Cats, Kills and Cubs

My boyfriend Kyle and I have been doing some relief management for camps in the Maasai Mara for the past few weeks.

This gave us the chance to watch some of the most amazing creatures in their own habitat.

The park was filled with Cheetahs....

I go tot see my first kill (after living in Kenya for over 20 years)


It wasn't long before a little Jackal turned up waiting for a share

"Just pretend he hasn't seen me..."

We followed a lioness into a lugga (dried river bed) where we discovered the sweetest little surprise...



Mum wasn't too happy we found her secret spot...


But she got used to us and let junior out to play



We later on found a older group of cubs. These ones were a lot more boisterous and confident, climbing trees and tackling each other.
