A walk in the bush with mum

Tuli has the last wild roaming population of elephants in southern Africa

Porcupine Tracks

On the wildlife tracking course students use their new tracking skills to locate wild animals in the bush

Thirsty elephant

Elephants don't drink with their trunks, but use them as "tools" to drink with. This is accomplished by filling the trunk with water and then using it as a hose to pour it into the elephant's mouth.

Two warthogs stop for a drink

They are the only pigs able to live in areas without water for several months of the year. By tolerating a higher than normal body temperature, the warthog is able to conserve moisture inside its body that might otherwise be used for cooling. When water is available warthogs drink regularly and enjoy wallowing in muddy places.

A rare leopard sighting

This leopard was spotted at Tuli Conservation Project

The elusive leopard

Leopards are masters of stealth and extremely difficult to trace and locate in the wild.

Africa's wild dog

Wild dogs were once widely distributed throughout sub-Saharan Africa. Today, viable populations may exist in only a handful of countries. Habitat loss and human persecution are the main causes of decline. Wild dogs fall victim to snaring, shooting, and speeding vehicles on roadways.

Thirsty work!

Having a long neck is great for feeding where no others can but makes drinking slightly tricky!
