The Wildebeest's Review of "Wild Issue 39"

The Wildebeest reviewing a book

I have the latest copy of “Wild” magazine in my hands and am eager to see where I am going to be tempted to visit next! This magazine is always full of great articles and amazing photos.

Early in the magazine you encounter a cheetah family. The article focuses on a group of related Cheetahs in the Kgaligadi Transfrontier Park. The article is accompanied by some great shot of the family in action. I loved the article entitled “Young hearts run free” describing a 4,700 km road trip a young couple did to visit as many parks as possible in the available time. I think that we should all do this kind of road trip at some point in our lives.

Mapungubwe National Park is a special place and the piece on it should encourage a lot more people to visit it. Another interesting, but worrying, article is the one on the plight of the Hooded Vulture. What would a trip to our game reserves be like if there were no raptors? In this last sentence there is a truth and a clue to the problem facing most bigger birds. You are only likely to see them in game reserves and other protected areas.

Overall, another good issue of this magazine.
