Kruger Park - Day 4

Kruger Park – Day 4

Today was a little overcast, yet productive.

We had three Safari drives, one in the early AM (up at 5:31 and out the gate at first light 6:21), one in the late morning and early afternoon and then the ubiquitous afternoon drive.

We interacted with Elephant, Hyena and many other species of mamal and bird.

Todays image is from a Hyena den that we discovered not far from the camp. There were three babies being guarded by a couple of females (At least one that was suckling). This shot shows one of the guards prancing around with the skin of a dead animal, playing with the small ones. Quite the scene it set as they ran around.

More tomorrow and enjoy!

Cheers,
Rob & Sao

  1. a luta pela sobrevivência, entende-se é certo mas também faz pena ver o animal já sem vida na boca da hiena! uma excelente definição
