When is the best time to see the Wild Banana?
The Wild Banana 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. Oribi Gorge Nature Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep; uMlalazi Nature Reserve: year-round, warm Oct-Apr; Vernon Crookes Nature Reserve: Spring and summer, Sep-Mar. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
