The photo above was taken in the Kruger National Park, South Africa's premier national park that offers a wildlife experience equal to any on the continent.

The park, extending over nearly 2 million hectares, hosts an impressive diversity of wild animals and birds. The south of the park is renowned for good lion sightings, but there are also large herds of elephant and buffalo, plus giraffe, zebra, rhino and antelope to keep the visitors happy.
