This highly adaptable species can be found throughout South Africa and into Southern Namibia. They typically remain in Karoo-like regions, hence the name, but absolutely adore water! During mating season, Karoo Toads will claim any viable water source for their offspring, including puddles or rain water found in hoof prints left behind by antelope species.

Known in Afrikaans as the “Bloukop Koggelmander” (which directly translates to “Blue-Headed Lizard”), the males of this species turn a brilliant blue during mating season. This colouration can be controlled, though not to the extent of its cousin the chameleon, so that it may return to muted tones in the presence of a predator.

The Spotted Rock Snake presents with beautiful markings and is perfectly suited to rock dwelling. Much like other snakes, the Spotted females trail pheromones in the mating season, which attracts partners. The gathering males will take part in a dominance duel where the victor is determined by pinning the other male’s head on the ground.

Shaun

Shaun hails from Centurion and developed his love of nature from a childhood inspiration: Steve Irwin. His favourite time of day, at Kagga Kamma, is nighttime, when the Milky Way explodes across the night sky and he has a better chance of spotting his favourite prowler, the elusive Cape Leopard. On his off days, Shaun often spends time drawing or honing his photography skills. Many of the flora and fauna photos you’ll see online were taken by this wildlife enthusiast!

Garrick

Garrick is a coastal lad who grew up in Kwa-Zulu Natal. While he adored the sea, he was on the lookout for the adventure of a lifetime and that’s how he landed at Kagga Kamma. For Garrick, the seasons in this region are matchless and he enjoys the vast differences of experiencing the Reserve at different times of the year. His favourite pastime is packing up his hiking gear and heading into the Cederberg wilderness for a day or two with hopes of observing the Cape Cobra.

Andrew

Andrew grew up in Johannesburg and spent many family holidays in the South African bushveld; which is where he came to appreciate his passion for nature and wildlife. One thing Andrew realised upon arriving at Kagga Kamma is that words do not do the spectacular views any justice – and it is the beautiful landscape that is his favourite aspect about the Lodge. You can often spot Andrew presenting on a Reptile Educational, where he shares his fascination of his favourite reptilians with our guests.
