Kruger2canyon News

Welcome to the exciting world of the Kruger2Canyon News.

We are a community newspaper based in Hoedspruit, South Africa, that has its bias towards wildlife and conservation. We aim to have local, original, and relevant content that is both thought provoking and educational. We also strive to maintain a high standard of journalism.

We are in the centre of the UNESCO officially ratified, Kruger to Canyons Biosphere. Hoedspruit is generally considered to be the ‘safari capital’ of South Africa, within close proximity to the renowned and famous Kruger National Park, the Blyde River Canyon, the Timbavati, Klaserie and many other private game farms and reserves. Some of Africa’s most luxurious game lodges are also close by.

We invite you to read our publication, access previous editions, provide feedback should you wish, and hopefully we will get you to subscribe. We publish monthly, and generally release our editions on the last Friday of every month.

We hope you enjoy the read and we look forward to welcoming you to Hoedspruit, our community, and our world of wildlife and conservation.

Lady Godiva’s Horoscopes – November’s Wild Ride

Buckle up, darlings – November isn’t about gentle strolls or tidy endings. This is the month where the universe tips the board, scatters the pieces, and dares you to play differently. Plans will shift, surprises will drop in your lap, and more than one eyebrow will shoot skyward. Some signs will thrive in the madness, others will wobble a bit, but one thing’s for sure: nobody’s getting through November without a story to tell.

Wat is die een ding wat ons vir ons kinders moet los? Mooi en gesonde herinneringe. Die rykes soek rykdom vir hulle nasate, die armes soek ʼn beter lewe vir hulle kinders, die middel klas soek geleerdheid vir hulle kinders.

Since the dawn of mankind, we have wondered if we are alone. According to scientific estimates, the Universe contains more than a septillion planets (that’s 1 followed by 24 zeros!!). Surely, somewhere in this seemingly infinite darkness, other life might exist.
