Vrae wat reisigers vra
’n Waarneming beteken dat ’n gasheer die Tsessebe op die eiendom of naby gesien het. Dit waarborg nooit dat jy dit sal sien nie.
Which parks and reserves are best for the Tsessebe in KwaZulu-Natal?
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Tsessebe at stays in or beside Ithala Game Reserve. A record means a host has seen it on the property or nearby, which makes these the places to base yourself; it is never a guarantee of a sighting on any given day.
Where can you see the Tsessebe in South Africa?
The Tsessebe is most recorded in Limpopo (47% of records), Northern Cape (20% of records), North West (19% of records), based on 725 iNaturalist observations. 1 place to stay on Spekboom in KwaZulu-Natal has recorded the Tsessebe on site or nearby.
When is the best time to see the Tsessebe?
The Tsessebe is recorded throughout the year, so no month is the wrong month to look for it. For the parks where hosts record it most, these are the best seasons they give. Ithala Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
What is the conservation status of the Tsessebe?
The Tsessebe (Damaliscus lunatus) is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.
