WILDwatch Volume 2 has hit the shelves!!

We are delighted to announce the release of our second WILDwatch Annual, a 207-page publication filled with eyewitness accounts from our expert safari guides across the continent.

Every day, more than 200 CC Africa rangers, guides and trackers take guests into the wild landscapes of Kenya, Tanzania, Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe and South Africa. In a series of captivating field observations, the safari guides recount unusual, dramatic and sometimes tragic events witnessed on
CC Africa game drives. Liberally illustrated with spectacular colour photographs taken by the guides, the book also provides a valuable summation of ecological events of each of the diverse localities.

With engaging stories about Africa’s Big Five, right down to the continent’s smaller creatures and incredible flora, this book will interest all nature enthusiasts of African mammals, birds and other wildlife. Readers can delve into fascinating stories of hunting lions, duelling cobras, rare skinks, swooping eagles, brave baboons, nimble civets, newborn rhinos, breeding elephants, mating dolphins, hatching turtles, and the Great Migration, to name but a few.

A Kitchen Safari: Stories & Recipes from the African Wilderness.

Author(s): Yvonne Short, Dumi Ndlovu

It is an enchanting, heartwarming encounter with the characters, chefs and cuisine of our 35 camps and lodges across Africa.

Not just a cookbook, it contains uproarious anecdotes of bush banquets scuppered by hyenas pilfering dinner from the fire, of vegetable gardeners called Laborious Gherkin, of keeping a herd of 200 elephants at bay with a pot and ladle … of myriad mishaps, misadventures and miraculous metamorphoses that are commonplace when producing ground-breaking food in a wilderness location.

And the book perfectly captures this bush theatre. Endearing hand-written notes penned by rural chefs appear as trace pages throughout the book, which is peppered with their colourful stories of what goes on behind the scenes, before your perfect Pistachio Pastries are served in the boma of a remote and wild location.

Author of the book, Yvonne Short, is CC Africa’s flamboyant, mad-cap culinary genius who has inspired generations of rural people, often erstwhile unskilled farm labourers or poachers, into becoming masterful chefs delighting the palates of our discerning, well-travelled guests.

THE RETURN – The Story of Phinda Game Reserve

Author(s): Shan Varty and Molly Buchanan

The Return is the story of a dream to create a game reserve out of a group of derelict farms in the midst of Maputaland's rural poverty. The four men who founded Phinda believed that Maputaland was worth saving from the spiral of destruction into which it was being drawn and that they would find a way of establishing a game reserve and returning the wildlife to a land that had once echoed with the sounds of thousands upon thousands of animals. Their goal was to show, by example, that there was a sustainable alternative to the poverty of the rural people.

Phinda has shown what is possible. The next stage is to involve in making Maputaland one of the great ecological playgrounds of the world.
