Experiences with species

An endangered bird, the Kruger Park population is the most viable. Programs are underway to re-introduce them to their former range, such as in Mabula Game Reserve. More can be read about them at the EWT website. I have seen them in Botswana in Chobe, as well as the Mozambique side of the Kruger Park.
