Antelope park has the only successful lion program that introduce captive breeding lions back to the
wild. Within this program, visitors to the park are able to walk with the lions from the ages of 3 months
to 2 years. Karina is speechless as she joins 2 year old lions on a morning walk. The lions actively play,
climb trees and stalk each other. Karina also cuddles and walks with two 6 month old cubs. One of
Karina’s highlights is game viewing while riding an elephant and they also enjoy an animated swim in
one of the dams. One of Antelope Park’s world exclusives is the “EVENING ENCOUNTER” whereby a
visitor can see 1st hand how the lions hunt while following in a game viewing vehicle. The lions have a
40% strike rate and Karina is fortunately treated to seeing 3 lions hunt and kill an antelope called an
impala.
