Godfrey Baloyi, Operations Manager, master guide and Pafuri lover recaps that moment when Cheetah's returned to visit Pafuri. This is the first time that they have been seen since 2007.

The last light of the day feathers through the fine leaves of the fever trees all around us. A few hundred metres away, a solitary elephant bull is pretending to ignore us. Our field guide, Sarah Nurse, points at an inky blotch – a black hawk swooping between branches. I sip on my gin and tonic and sigh contentedly. I feel like I’ve come home.
