That would be why they're looking at the Northern Cape - have been saying for years that the area would be perfect for it.

Some pictures:

Plus of course some interesting animals, apart from the usual Springbok, Kudu, Lions, etc:

It's exciting news to know South-Africa will have a part in WOT.  The Three-fold Land would be exceptional! And great to find a fellow Capetonian as a fan, Elgee!

Oooh hello, Ana! Which part of CT are you in? I'm in the Bothasig area.

How many hours drive is that for you? 😛

My brother lives in Namibia. Next country over, lol.

 

I hope they have a cute anteater wander across the screen. And herds of oryx.

About 5h30, depending on where exactly they'd be shooting 😁

He'd probably be closer, depending on where he lives?

I mean, that's not bad if you have access to a car and wanted to be an extra or something. Lmao

[Elgee]

We regularly drive 2 hours to Langebaan up the West Coast on a Saturday morning and then 2 ours back again in the afternoon, so ... lol

He lives in Windhoek. And thinks nothing of driving 5 hours to spend a weekend camping and watching wildlife.
