For some reason, history has marked the warthog as an object of lampoonery.

Human–elephant conflict is already a major conservation and livelihood challenge across southern Africa.

South Africa’s free-roaming cheetah population is much smaller than previously thought, according to the first coordinated national census of the species living outside protected areas.

Alion’s roar or hyena’s whoop are considered “iconic”. But the song of the jackal is one of the wild’s most hauntingly beautiful sounds, easily on par with spine-tingling wolf howls in other parts of the world.
