We went for two game drives yesterday. We took the first at midday and another late afternoon. I did not expected to see many game at this time of day it being so hot, but we did see some giraffe and other game. They are the tallest browsers by several meters, the Giraffe can reach a height of five meters and it can be found throughout the valley savannah. The Kudu bull we found amongst the Kudu Thorn trees they are leaf eaters and keep to the bush areas.
Zebra is plentiful in the park and we see them often on our game drives. We where stopped by a game ranger who showed us a Leopard but we only got a glimpse of him as he escaped thru the long savannah grass.
On our late afternoon game drive we saw Elephants at the water hole drinking and playing. Not far from the water hole we game across two adult Rhinos and a baby Rhino . Rhino are being killed for their horns at a alarming rate in South Africa lately and we really very worried, so far this year more than 400 Rhino has been killed for their horns.
