• Be wary of Leopard Creek ‘hazards’

    Be wary of Leopard Creek 'hazards'

    Golfers, as well as pedestrians and joggers, were on high alert after a lion was spotted in areas of Leopard Creek and Malelane Golf Club earlier on Tuesday morning.

    According to Mel Preddy, of the Malelane Community Policing Forum (CPF), there have been several sightings of predators along the Crocodile River throughout the Onderberg including a buffalo, a pack of wild dogs and four lions, sighted in Marloth Park – some 40km away – since last Monday.

    Almost a year ago, a similar scenario played out when two lions were spotted in the same area by police officers. The MTPA were notified and the animals monitored. The lions later made their way back into the Kruger National Park (KNP) on their own.
