Tanda Tula : White Lions of the Timbavati

The Timbavati was famous for its White Lions, it is not an albino, as it carries the recessive white gene. Nowadays white lions are extinct in the wild and there are only 25 in existence in captivity. The White Lions of the Timbavati have been well researched and to this day are partially responsible for making the Timbavati area and it associated lodges so famous.

Ironically the The name Timbavati in the ancient Shangaan language means "the place where something sacred came down to earth - like a bird or angel from the heavens!" The Shangaan trackers at the Timbavati believed that the White Lions were sent as gifts from God so the site of their origin echoes the White Lions' mythical status - a place which saw the birth of a unique breed of snow- white lions with blazing solar manes, and laser eyes.
