The rains have finally arrived.
The concession has been getting a lot of rain in the past week. All the pans are full and the rivers are bursting their banks.
The Anti Poaching units have been working in an area called Nyaboswe for the past week, they managed to catch 1 poacher while the second one ran away. They had on them 20 Suni, and 38 pieces of smoked Nyala meat. The handcuffed poacher decided to do a runner during the night and got away.
