With the first-ever WildEarth Expedition behind us and a roaring success, it is time to start preparing for future expeditions to make sure many other wildlife enthusiasts can also enjoy this unique safariLIVE experience. If you are not sure what a 'WildEarth Expedition' is: It is a unique opportunity for our viewers to visit Djuma [...]
WildEarth and Africam have agreed to transfer the streaming and distribution of the Pete's Pond cam at Mashatu and the camera at Kwa Maritane from WildEarth to Africam. Additionally, Africam will work with Tau Game Lodge to bring back that camera on their platform in the near future. The Djuma camera will continue to [...]
I have been watching safariLIVE for two years, but I never thought I’d have the chance to visit the camp and spend time with the crew, as well as see the characters with my own two eyes. So, when the safariLIVE Experience was introduced as a part of the diveLIVE Kickstarter campaign, I knew [...]
Whilst doing some administrative jobs for the FC girls, I came across a page titled ‘Special Days Calendar’. I was tasked to make sure that all the days aligned and were, in fact, real events. Having gone through the list extensively I found that ‘National Pollinators Week’ was only officially celebrated in the United [...]

The bathroom isn’t normally a space thought to be host to a wide variety of life. It’s not supposed to be at all, one might say. But here at Djuma, I’ve encountered a wide variety of creatures (mostly insects) residing in the three bathrooms of safariLIVE’s campsite. Mostly, I see them during the night, [...]
safariLIVE’s camp is under siege. Who has breached its gates and is terrorizing the populace inside? Is it a group of marauding hyenas? A colossal force of siafu ants? An enraged elephant, finally sick of these annoying humans who bumble about its kingdom? All valid guesses but the intruders who cause no end of [...]
