Internet in the bush

Game drive streaming service Painted Dog TV has built its own wireless network in the Balule Nature Reserve in the iconic Greater Kruger National Park.

Painted Dog TV is one of several game drive streaming broadcasters operating in South Africa, and they all require an Internet connection to provide their services.

Owner of Painted Dog Brent Leo-Smith's favorite animal is the wild dog.

He started the company after leaving wild earth/safari live.

Whut? Virtual safaris?

Not something new. Safari live/wild earth have been doing for quite a few years. Believe they also broadcast on channel 183 on dstv.

Exclusive virtual safaris start at $490 (R7,330) and are limited to include only friends and family.

Who is going to pay upwards of R7 330 for a virtual safari? Might as well watch a documentary on BBC or Nat Geo.

Brilliant idea to support nature tbh.

 

[SlowInternet]

Virtual safaris have been around for sometime.

This concept of paid virtual safaris created an extra income during the Covid period.

Brent is very passionate about nature and wildlife.
