Jonty is currently residing in India, as he was appointed as the fielding coach for the Mumbai Indian Premier League T20 Cricket competition.
Recently, he has been traveling around South Africa on behalf of SA Tourism to promote South Africa as a tourism destination for the Indian market.
According to the Cango Wildlife Ranch, Jonty was a great sport during his visit: "Not only did he stroke our adult cheetahs and play with our Bengal Snowtiger cubs, he also went face-to-face with our giant Nile crocodiles in our ultimate croc-cage dive!
"The most daring moment of his day involved a very close encounter with our 2.5m Burmese python, JayJay."
