Students at the vet with the King Cheetah

This week we have been very busy doing a variety of things including working in the butchery, feeding and cleaning at the Centre. We have also visited two vets – one who operated on a king cheetah and a vulture, and the other where we learned about foot and mouth disease and its prevention in the local community.

Rhino on Kampama Game Reserve

So far we have seen four of the Big Five – lion, rhino, buffalo and elephant around Kapama Reserve. We’ve also watched two male cheetahs enjoying their freshly killed impala. Also, we had a very exciting sighting when we got to see a pangolin in the wild!
