The superintendent of Skukuza Golf Course in Kruger National Park, Jean Rossouw, must have the best job during lockdown, looking after a course that seems to have become a favourite haunt of lions, hyenas and other animals.
Rossouw and other SANParks staff have been posting great photos and videos of animals on social media during the lockdown. The latest video is particularly good, as lions and leopards casually cross the greens.

COVID-19 has forced wildlife parks to think out of the box, and since lockdown began game rangers have been taking tourists to view animals… from the comfort of their homes. This Sunday Carte Blanche takes a virtual drive through the wild side of the global pandemic. You can watch the show on Sunday 10 May in South Africa on DStv Now or stream it overseas in most countries abroad from Tues 12 May on Showmax International.
