Djuma Game Reserve, Wildlife reserve in Mpumalanga, South Africa
Djuma Game Reserve is a protected area of about 1,200 hectares (3,000 acres) located within Sabi Sand Game Reserve along the western edge of Kruger National Park. The landscape includes open grasslands and wooded areas that support a wide range of animal species.
Djuma covers 1,200 hectares within the Sabi Sand Game Reserve, on the western border of Kruger National Park in Mpumalanga. Its boundary with Kruger is unfenced, so the reserve forms part of the Greater Kruger National Park, a grouping of adjoining parks across which wildlife moves without barrier.
The name Djuma means the roar of a lion, taken from the local language of the area around the reserve. The reserve sits on the unfenced western border of Kruger National Park, so lions and other animals move freely between the two areas. Visitors can watch the reserve's wildlife on WildEarth.tv, where a live camera near Gowrie Dam is run remotely by volunteers worldwide.
