Get out in the bush, and don't just look at the sky line. The little guys are amazing too!

Hello,

We were in the Timbavati reserve. There were about 8 adults and 5 pups. Really playful ~ one of the pups picked up a stick in its mouth that was a bit too big for it!

I'll try and get some photos on soon!
