"Just wanted to say a big thank you to Dixon and all staff at Mala Mala for a wonderful adventure.  We stayed with you from 25th-28th September and have got 500 photos to prove it! Will recommend Mala Mala to everyone we know!

Three of the photos on were of a female leopard and her cub up a tree and the circling hyena down below.  The female was originally on the ground with her kill with the cub up the tree eating his share.  The female suddenly picked up her kill and jumped up the tree as the nearby hyena ran towards her.  A short while later, after enjoying his meal, the cub dropped his meat and the patient hyena got what he came for.  Amazing.  Feel so lucky to have witnessed this and all the animals on your reserve."
