Just been informed of a young man on an electric motorcycle in Onepu riding on all the trails, and probably tearing them up.
He headed out of the main gate and headed west, thought to be towards a farm.
If you see anyone or know this guy, please make them aware they risk having the whole park closed if it becomes dangerous!

Need something different to do with your kids... why don't you head out to the Otipa area of the park and search for fungi, there is such a variety at the moment. Also you might find some colourful characters along the way
Hi all, hope everyone is enjoying the cooler mornings.
** Please keep a look out for a Samsung smart watch, it has a magnetic orange straw so hopefully it is bright enough for someone to spot, was lost today at the park.**

Creepy Crawly Night 🦟🐛🕷🕸🦗🪲
On Friday a small team ventured out into the wetlands to see what critters we could find. Recording what we found so we could have a record to see if there is some improvement in size, and variety over the next couple of years.
More photos will follow. These ones are from Russell Ingram-Seal, who also helped me with names.
