SOME OF OUR WORK

Bush Hacking with Tony Johnstone

These 2 minute filler programs are currently being broadcast on SuperGolf and Sky Sports.  The programs are hosted by a famous golfer, commentator and wildlife guru.  Some say he can spot a scops owl at 100 paces…others say that warthogs run in terror when they spot him.  We know him as…Tony Johnstone.

Watch as he tries to play his way out of the Kruger Park, all the while encountering a host of interesting animals, plants, insects and birds.
