Game To Be Seen On The Horse Riding Safari
Due to the diverse topography and vegetation both Ant’s Nest
and Ant’s Hill carry an incredible range of different game
species. There are: rhino, sable antelope, buffalo (a breeding conservation project at Ant’s Hill producing disease free buffalo) nyala, gemsbok (oryx), kudu, giraffe, livingstone eland, blue wildebeest, red hartebeest, zebra, impala, bushbuck, duiker, steenbuck, mountain reedbuck, waterbuck, warthog, blesbuck, baboons, bushpig, klipspringer, leopard, jackal, brown hyena, caracal, civet, genet to name but a few. There are 300
recorded bird species in the area to add to the exquisite
variety of all forms of wildlife that the reserves support.
Our horses live out and graze amongst the game on a daily basis,
the thoroughbreds being stabled at night. This has allowed the
game to become habituated to the horses thus giving one a unique
opportunity of really getting in and amongst the various species
whilst riding.
