The study shows wildebeest frequently crisscross the Sand River and the areas surrounding the Ritz-Carlton, even though they avoid forested areas nestling the camp due to the risk of predators.

Although it’s a relatively small number, it represents a stunning recovery for the apex predators, which were hunted and trapped into extinction in the 1920s.

In some reintroduction efforts, the animals actually have to be trained—taught—how to be wild: how to find food, avoid predators, seek shelter.
