Spent the day earlier in the week at
Jukani, a wildlife sanctuary in Mossell Bay, with everything from white tigers, white lions, Siberian tigers, lions, cheetahs, jaguars, panthers, caracals, and other animals like jackals and African wild dogs.

Snoozing caracal |
I have seen most of these animals at zoos before, but I have never seen a jackal before and never seen nor heard of a caracal which is almost a small bobcat without the fancy markings.
The white tigers and lions were absolutely stunning. I have never heard of a white lion before, because I guess they are so highly hunted for their coats that they are very endangered. I was thankful for the opportunity to be able to see these animals up close.

I wish I had more to say about this place but some things are really harder to put into words than others. I can just hope that the pictures I shared can help get the breathtaking feeling I felt across to you guys.
"Adventure is out there." Go find it!
