"Vultures on an Impala Kill Great Plains Conservation This committee of vultures was spotted at Selinda Camp in Botswana. Vultures are notorious scavengers and were fortunate to come across a male impala kill. This is a large committee of vultures which may have scared off the initial predator. It is also possible that the initial predator abandoned this kill or that the impala died from other causes. Vultures have incredible eyesight that helps them spot food and even follow wildlife if they suspect it will lead to food. https://greatplainsconservation.com/"

Pythons are opportunistic hunters that prey on a variety of animals including rodents birds monkeys and small antelopes. They have also been known to target larger animals such as warthogs and"

"Leopard Cub Close-Up Great Plains Conservation As soon as we saw this video taken at Okavango Explorers Camp in Botswana we fell in love with this little leopard cub. Leopards are solitary animals but cubs will stay with their mothers for 18-24 months while they are taught essential survival skills for living on their own. In this time the mothers are devoted to the well-being and future of their litter and pass on as much knowledge as possible. However once the time comes to go off on their own neither the cubs nor the mother are upset about it as this is their natural way of life."

"Cutest Leopard Cub and Mother Great Plains Conservation While guests were driving from Selinda Explorers Camp to Zarafa Camp both located on the private Selinda Reserve in Botswana they had the privilege of spotting a leopard cub with its mother. Leopards are elusive and incredibly good at hiding themselves which makes this sighting even more special. A saying that we always go by is that 'You will only see a leopard when it wants you to see it'. Perhaps this mother was proud of her cub and decided to show it off. #greatplainsconservation #wildlife #conservationtourism #greatplainsfoundation"

"A Brutal Battle Between Lions Great Plains Conservation A tense and emotional encounter unfolded at Duba Plains Camp when a lioness fiercely defended her young against an intruding male lion. Sadly one of her cubs didnt survive. The other is still missing. Why do male lions attack cubs Its brutal but it's part of lion social dynamics. When a new male tries to take over a pride he will often kill existing cubs to bring the lionesses back into estrus and establish his bloodline. This moment is a powerful reminder of the reality of life in the wild. Its not just survival of the fittest. Its a"

"Wildlife Wednesday August [----] Great Plains I was pleased to see the submissions from guides and guests as they represent a cross-section of what everyone is seeing this month particularly since there is also so little coverage of the wildebeest migration in the Maasai Mara. The overcrowding is sickening there but speaking to our guides they are seeing unbelievable things away from any other vehicles out there. This includes remarkable crossings up and down the river by doing what our guides are trained to do: find the exceptional with exclusivity. It is not about a million wildebeest. That"

"Powerful Male Lion in Botswana Great Plains Conservation #lion #wildlife This impressive male lion was spotted at Duba Plains Camp in Botswana situated in the Okavango.

"Mara Toto Tree Camp Great Plains Conservation All our camps are ready and waiting for their arrival but the good news is that our newest camp is also ready Mara Toto Tree Camp welcomed our first guests yesterday and suddenly the steady beat of hammers and buzz of saws went silent. Immediately vervet monkeys and birds voiced their appreciation. Dereck and Beverly Joubert watched two golden-tailed woodpeckers working away for insects from the library a mere [--] meters from their world. They were then chased off by Paradise flycatchers - a whole high-level battle for dominance of the treetops."

"A Rare Sight: White-Tailed Mongoose Hunts and Shares with Its Young Great Plains Conservation Captured by our live webcam at ol Donyo Lodge in Kenya this moment was unexpected and extraordinary.

These are the kinds of unscripted moments that make live wildlife cams so special and why we keep them rolling 24/7. 📍Filmed in the Chyulu Hills Kenya. 🎥 Watch more"
