“We were parked in the open area overlooking Sunset Dam. Impalas drank on the far end, and herons flew through the air. The chorus of social weavers supplied a tranquil setting. Little did we know we were in for a treat.”

“We watched in awe as the large crocodile continued to eat, eventually devouring the smaller crocodile entirely. It was both terrifying and amazing to watch. I’ve never seen anything like it before, and I don’t think I ever will again. Nature can be cruel, but it’s also beautiful in its own way.”
