In the Maasai Mara, wildebeest and zebra were spread as far as the horizon, filled with eagerness to feed on the lush offerings on the other side of the rapids. However, a miscalculation at the rocky entry point resulted in failed and flailing attempts. In Djuma, Thandi, a male leopard, was faced with an unsuccessful stalk. And in Tswalu, a sighting of a pride of lions relaxing on the warm Kalahari sand was a perfect conclusion to another day in the African wild.
