WildEarth has some exciting news to share. From Tuesday 19th May we will be traversing on Simbambili Reserve which is part of the Sabi Sand Game Reserve and in fact borders Djuma to the West. Not only is this fantastic reserve Djuma’s neighbour but also our very own Tristan Dicks used to work there as [...]
As South Africa plunges into winter we are moving our Sunrise Safari half an hour later so that we match the sunrise times. Currently, the sun rises around 6.25 am here in South Africa which means the guides are searching for animals in the dark for nearly half an hour. With the dip in temperatures [...]
WE are super grateful to the “Quaranteam” at Djuma for working so hard over the past 7 weeks to keep our LIVE safaris going. Many of our team have worked every single day since March 26th and they have earned themselves a well-deserved rest. So, WE are carrying out a team swap so as to [...]
Unfortunately, WildEarth had to make the decision to stop broadcasting from Karongwe with immediate effect. The reason for this decision is that in 2013 a male lion called Zero was trophy-hunted in the reserve. While we are not aware of any other hunts having happened since that time, we cannot take the chance that [...]
As many of you will have seen from this morning's sunrise safari, WE have partnered with EcoTraining who are pioneers and leaders in safari guide and wildlife training here in Africa.

Correction: The original blog erroneously stated Tuesday, April 22nd for the town hall. The correct day is Wednesday, April 22nd. Apologies for the error. Dear WildEarth Community, Humanity continues to fight the COVID-19 pandemic with social distancing, and almost half of us are under some form of stay-at-home strategy while the global death toll [...]
Due to popular demand, WE have decided to open a second daily dedicated Kids LIVE session per day. Currently, we prioritise our WildEarth Kids in the first 45 minutes of our Sunset Safari. These sessions have been exceedingly popular, but for many around the world, it is too late for children to be awake. Therefore [...]

In order to keep up with these changing daylight hours and to bring you a safari during the best animal viewing times, WE are going to need to make a small change to the Sunset Safari. From April 20th [...]
