Summary: Outstanding from the get go. Big 5 in 3 hours and a wild dog on a fresh kill. Scary that our guide Steve predicted 2 of the sightings 30 min before seeing the lion and buffulo. This guy is like a Safari machine, telling interesting stories about his history of working with lions and big cats and his famous mentor mad mike . As Arnold Said so well. WELL BE BACK
