Unfortunately WE have to cancel this afternoons drive and most probably tomorrow mornings as well. You will be glad to hear that it is because we are moving all of our transmission equipment from the old 'Tank' to a new vehicle. It is not yet one of the brand new vehicles that we are planning [...]

Yesterday morning the inverter, that converts the battery power (12 volts DC) to 220 volts AC on the broadcast vehicle (the 'Tank'), began to smoke ... usually a very bad sign. We immediately tracked a new one down in Nelspruit and WE went to collect it. Late last night the team installed the new one [...]
On Sunday 27th April 2008 WildEarth will have been LIVE for exactly one year. It is also Freedom Day over here in SA and so WE think it is definitely an excuse to celebrate. Over the past year we have seen many of our beloved bush characters come and go along with numerous staff. Watch [...]

I have still not managed to ever see one in real life in the wild, can you believe it? I particularly like this one because it shows you the amazing speed at which a pack of Wild Dogs can devour [...]
