A Natural Partnership between EcoTraining and WildEarth

WildEarth has been operating for 13-years, it is an ecosystem of LIVE wildlife streaming, a complement of staff and guides who love what they do and a host of viewers that are passionate about our natural world. Their mission is to provide people around the world with immersive experiences in nature from the comfort of their own homes, if you cannot get on a Safari, they will bring Safari to you.

This past Sunday, the 26th April 2020, EcoTraining Instructor Tayla McCurdy joined the incredible team of WildEarth for a twice-daily live safari experience from Karongwe Game Reserve.

Karongwe Game Reserve, overlooking the majestic Drakensberg mountain range in the Limpopo Province in South Africa, is an untamed and tranquil Eden, rich in wildlife and timeless beauty.
