David Cowles, On Safari in Monarto (ANIMAL & NATURE 2025)

Images were taken at the Newest Safari Park is the Southern hemisphere. Just happens to be located in Adelaide South Australia. Early one April morning 2025 the tour started just before sunrise in the new 48Ha or 100 acre Wild Africa enclosure. You are driven around with an experienced keeper in a purpose built 9 seat toyota landcruiser just like they use in Africa. ie. full uninterrupted views with no windows, You drive inside the fence with nothing between you and the various animals the animals. You are able to get within 15 to 20 m . In some case closer. This is the best experience outside going to Africa itself and at a fraction of the expense. A very special experience to be this close to wild animals most of which you have seen in many documentaries. You are now able to stay onsite in glamping tents or a 4 star 64 room Lodge complex. An experience that you need to have on your bucket list.
