Two things which will always be associated with the Western Cape are
Wine and Whales. While the northern provinces of South Africa are
traditionally big game country, not many people are aware that the big
five (lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant, rhino) roamed the valleys and
mountains of the Cape until they were hunted to extinction by early
settlers.
In fact there are moves to bring them back to the Western Cape,
when that happens we will in fact be able to offer the big six, with
the inclusion of the Southern Right Whale.
