Ein Nachweis bedeutet, dass ein Gastgeber den African Elephant auf dem Grundstück oder in der Nähe gesehen hat. Eine Sichtung ist nie garantiert.
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the African Elephant at stays in or beside Welgevonden Game Reserve and Marakele National Park. 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.
The African Elephant is most recorded in Mpumalanga (39% of records), Limpopo (23% of records), Eastern Cape (16% of records), based on 10 842 iNaturalist observations. 9 places to stay on Spekboom in Limpopo have recorded the African Elephant on site or nearby.
The African Elephant 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. Welgevonden Game Reserve: May-Sep, dry season; Marakele National Park: May-Sep, dry season. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
