Staying at Sangha Lodge is like escaping to a hidden paradise deep in the heart of the African rainforest.

Located right by the Sangha River, it’s the kind of place where nature feels alive and you’re completely immersed in it.

The lodge itself is cozy and blends in perfectly with the surroundings, so you get the best of both worlds—comfort and adventure.

Whether you're staying in a private chalet or a tented safari-style room, you’re surrounded by nothing but trees, rivers, and wildlife.

The real magic of Sangha Lodge is what’s outside.

You can head out on a boat trip along the river or hike through the rainforest, and if you’re lucky, you might spot elephants or gorillas up close.

After a day of exploring, you can kick back at the lodge with a delicious meal made from local ingredients, and enjoy the peaceful vibe while taking in the view of the river and forest.

Sangha Lodge is a perfect mix of adventure and relaxation—it’s the kind of place that makes you feel like you’ve stepped into a different world, and it’s one you won’t forget anytime soon.

Tombstone Territorial Park

Tombstone Territorial Park in northern Yukon is a wild and stunning landscape, famous for its jagged peaks, rolling tundra, and incredible wildlife.

It’s home to grizzlies, caribou, and Dall sheep, with the iconic Tombstone Mountain towering over the terrain.

The park’s mix of boreal forest and alpine tundra makes it a dream spot for hikers and nature lovers.

With its remote location along the Dempster Highway, Tombstone feels truly untouched.

In fall, the tundra glows with reds and golds, and in winter, it’s a prime spot for northern lights.

Whether you're here for the views, the solitude, or the adventure, this park is pure Yukon wilderness at its best.

UNUSUAL ANIMAL BEHAVIORS

Martial Eagles Hunt Lion Cubs in Maasai Mara

In the Maasai Mara, martial eagles are proving that even lion cubs aren’t completely safe at the top of the food chain.

These massive birds, with wingspans over six feet, are known for their impressive hunting skills, but researchers have now documented them snatching up lion cubs—a pretty shocking twist in the predator hierarchy.

While they usually hunt everything from small mammals to antelope, it turns out they won’t pass up an easy meal if a young cub is left vulnerable.

There have been cases where these eagles followed a pride for weeks, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

In one instance back in 2012, a martial eagle managed to take out three lion cubs over time.

It’s a rare sight, but it goes to show that in the wild, nothing is guaranteed—even the kings of the jungle sometimes end up as prey.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

“May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds.”
