A woman was left "incredulous" after she visited South Africa's famed Kruger National Park and left - having seen JUST ONE land animal.<br /><br />Natasha Joseph, 29, and friends went to the world-renowned national park known to host to the 'Big Five"'- lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos and buffalo.<br /><br />But despite the park's reputation, the group only managed to catch a glimpse of "bushes, trees, [an] impala and the exit".<br /><br />In a tongue-in-cheek video posted online, Natasha, from Johannesburg, South Africa, captioned a montage of clips featuring only one animal - a lone impala.<br /><br />The rest of the video showed the grasslands that had "bushes," "trees" and the "exit".<br /><br />Natasha, who was staying at nearby Marloth Park, said: "We decided the day before going that we wanted to do a day trip to Kruger.<br /><br />"Marloth Park is about a 20-minute drive from the Crocodile Bridge gate, so it’s very easy to go into Kruger for the day.<br /><br />"Most people going there are looking for the Big Five. We were hoping to see leopards and maybe some wild dog."<br /><br />The group, who paid 115 Rand (£5.44) a ticket, still had a good time and found the park to be "incredibly peaceful" with "cool birdlife", like European rollers and eagles.<br /><br />Natasha added: "It’s still amazing to be in the park.It’s incredibly peaceful driving around, being in nature with limited signal.<br /><br />"We found it quite funny whenever we stopped to get food or coffee and other people had had a similar experience to us, not seeing anything major to report on."
