The @aquilasafaris - led ‘Saving Private Rhino’ team went in search of finding a 3-week old rhino calf left orphaned at an undisclosed location after its mother was killed by poachers last week. 🦏 Sadly the calf could not be found after torrential rain hampered their tracking efforts in a vast landscape. A number of days in it should now be assumed that we have lost yet another gentle giant. 😢 • • This image is of a beautiful rhino we saw at @aquilasafaris a week or so ago. The incident did NOT happen at Aquila. • • • Have a look at @ SavingPrivateRhino on Facebook for in depth coverage of this recent incident. And take a look at the work being done by Aquila Animal Rescue Centre (ARC) to try save any orphaned rhinos due to poaching in private reserves. #Rhino

golden hour on Chapman's Peak Drive 🌅 • we were treated to such gorgeous conditions while waiting for the sun to set over Hout Bay. nothing quite like the warmth of the last few rays of sunshine ☀️ especially when precariously perched on a chunk of granite 120 meters above the icy Atlantic! • 📸snapped by @by__c 🙌

such pretty scenes in the Karoo at sunrise 😍 I woke up early in panic I'd overslept - I had by just a little 😴 I then considered just sleeping in, but after 5 minutes of trying to convince myself to catch another hours rest I pulled myself out of bed, threw my jacket and beanie on, laced up my boots and headed out onto the mountainside near the lodge. it was crisp outside, and I hadn't had a cuppa coffee yet...but with a morning like this it was so worth it! 👌 🌄 #WTMA18 #ExperienceTheWorld #AquilaSafari
