Mashatu Game Reserve is a wholly preserved and untainted wilderness in eastern Botswana, at the confluence of the Limpopo and Shashe Rivers. The ample plains range from savannah, to riverine forests, marshland, and sandstone outcrops. Mashatu, Land of Giants takes its name from the locally-sacrosanct Mashatu tree and the giants that roam the terrain. This is where Petes Pond is so famously situated and where thousands of pondies reside everyday.
National Geographic used to host the LIVE camera but WildEarth took it over in May 2011. A group of zoomies (all of whom are pondies) from all over the world take it in turns to man the camera and zoom in on the interesting things.
With a bit of patience you can expect to see anything from elephants coming for a drink to a Monitor lizard roaming the side of the Pond. And from the antics of vervet monkeys and baboons to fishing Hamerkop birds

(1,176 posts)I check in there all the time, along with Djuma waterhole. I have seen all kinds of animals. The cameras run 24/7. You can see quite a lot on the night vision camera.
