Jumbe’s Journal 2

This latest image from Jumbe, one of the rangers at Selous Luxury Camp and Mivumo River Lodge, was taken during  a boat safari on the Rufiji River. The leopard was spotted on the rocks at Stieglers Gorge, which is named after a European explorer who died in the area. The Selous Game Reserve is named after Sir Frederick Selous. He was a British army officer, explorer, big game hunter and early conservationist who was shot by a German sniper during a battle on the banks of the Rufiji in World War One. Don’t worry things have changed a lot since then  and the Selous is a much safer place to visit especially with Jumbe looking after you.
