hello to - RANGER - i dont know if you can answer this question -- every night i watch the nkorho zoomi operator as he or she pans the cam all around the nkorho area including the lodge and i enjoy the trip each night -never get bored with it --------------------------------------------------------------------------- but at elephant plains the zoomi does the same several times each night but -when the cam comes to where we could see the lodge ( the cam is allways suddenly tipped down so we cant see the lodge ( can you tell me why they wont show the lodge ?? i have snapped a few pics of it but it would be nice for those of us that watch the cams to see the lodge each night( night here in b.c.) days time in africa - like we do at nkorho

It is not that we do not want to show the logde, we'd just like to give our guests privacy as there are outdoor showers outside each room. Themba ![]() Wed, 06/08/2008 - 3:23am
Welcome Louis, we are so glad to meet you too. Just a little bit of advice to both of you. It is best to tell the date and time than page numbers. Some persons have 10 posts per page, others have 30 posts per page. Some have newest first, others have it the other way around. Searching for a page can be difficult sometimes. ![]() ![]() ![]() Wed, 06/08/2008 - 4:44am

Hi to all at EP Is Wayne still the head ranger? I can confirm the outside showers they are directly in line with the camera. Are the five lion males (brothers) still as active, this is terry from the uk if you could pass my regards onto Wayne, his wife(whose name escapes me for the moment) Ettiene and family and all the staff there it is a wonderful place I have been there every year since 1996 but this year cannot get in unfortunatly. Will be in South africa for 1month commencing 3rd Sept 2008. Wonderful

If this is a repeated question, I apologize! But, I have often wondered if the camera operators have the sounds that we are hearing at the same time? Sometimes I feel like I am hearing things just off camera and expect the camera to focus in on whatever is making the sound but they often don't. So, maybe the zoomies just have sight, not sound? That is by no means a criticism! Just curiosity. The operators are fabulous! Thanks so much! ____________________________Myra ![]() Wed, 06/08/2008 - 9:25am
Hello EP rangers ! I was wondering about a baboon that has been seen a few times on the cam. He was badly injured at his jaw but he seemed to be able to drink. Do you happen to know if he is still around ? I think the last time we saw him on cam was end of may somewhere. thanks

Hi Congokid The camera opperators do have sound aswell as a view of the open area so a lot of times the sound is out of sight of the camera itself so they dont move it also unfortunately we are sometimes not always at the cam so sometimes we miss the sound but thanks so much for the suggestion.

Hi Gerda thanks so much for the comment to answer your question he was quite possibly injured in a fight with another male baboon or by some mirracle got away from one our leopards. we suspect that due to his injuries he slowly passed away due to the lack of not being able to eat properly.

HELLO RANGERS - at nkorho we had a cape buffalo die - and the skull was put out for us to see each day- and it is most interesting to see the interaction of the different animals and the skull ( could the same be done at ELEPHANT PLAIN,S) ?? also we asked the rangers if a dead tree could be put in in the pan- they said yes- and we have now had kingfisher and fish eagle perch on it ( could a dead tree be put in \ elephant plain pan also ?? thank you ---barry
animals and the -skull-

I see Barry's Perch log has been installed this morning. Lots of small birds using it already ( could not see wat kind ) . They circled and claimed it and was using it as they darted out over the water for insects ? The Buffalo was not too impressed , he tok one sniff and bolted LOL. Now, what fun will it be when the baby Baboons begin to play king of the log ! LOL Thanks for going the extra mile guys ! ![]() Sat, 09/08/2008 - 3:02am
