We spent the last night hours of Post's time in South Africa at a log cabin at a game reserve. The Rhino and Lion reserve was much different than Kruger, it's not true wilderness. But it was beautiful and the game drive was really interesting. As you can see, we played with the white lion cubs. White lions are actually 25% of all lion births but they are rarely found in the wild because their mothers kill them in the first few days of their lives. They are killed because they will never make good hunters because of their lack of camoflauge and they will endanger the rest of the lions. Some game reserves take them away before they are killed and send them to live in captivity at places like this one.
We also saw lots of lions which we didnt see at Kruger. They see the vehicle we are in as one large object that doesnt present a danger to them. So as long as you stay relatively quiet and don't make sudden movements, you are safe. At least that's what our guide told us.
