7th September 2000
Expecting Tjololo to still be in Kruger we headed north onto the burns to pick up footage of impala at dusk. We were fortunate to find some and also a troop of baboons having a major squabble on the burn.
At sunset we headed south to look for Tjololo and heard him and the other male calling to the east, in Kruger.
Leaving the area we headed north again and were lucky to film a male lion roaring. A truly awesome sound, especially when close up, our vehicles even rattle. Not far from him a cheetah and her 2 cubs were resting up too.
Later back south Tjololo had moved further north, presumably now having sorted out his rights with the other male, and must have been resting here, ‘cos he only ventured onto Mala Mala around 3h00. He continued north along his eastern boundary and then west into the Sand river before heading south and resting up in the reeds.
