DESCRIPTION:
Mahlangeni, the Tsonga word for "meeting place", is one of the most remote ranger stations in the Kruger National Park. But Kobie Kruger tackled each problem with undaunted pragmatism and an energy that gives new meaning to word resourceful.. Running a household and raising a family in a place where leopards, elephants, snakes and the like are your only neighbours, where you have no telephone, and where a trip to town means first crossing a river full of hippos and crocodiles, is hardly a straightforward business. Far from everywhere, this isolated corner of the wilderness was home for eleven years to Kobie Kruger, wife of the ranger in charge of the station, and their their three daughters
