Animals, Animals Everywhere!

Krueger Park is not like a zoo. I just want to point out that you can drive for hours and not see animals. We were very lucky at how many we saw and such variety. But we also spent HOURS in the car, waking up to be out the gates looking for animals at 5 am (that's Levin's idea, not mine.) But Levin's early rising paid off and we saw a leopard! Leopards are very rare! And hard to see. But one was just sitting on the side of the road, crossed in front of us, and kind of hovered on the other side of the road. Last time (Dec 2007) Levin and I saw no rhinos either, but this time we are proud to say we saw all of the Big 5 and didn't even have to pay a single guide to point them out or find them, we found them on our own.

This video Levin calls, "the grandaddy of them all" and it may be his most prized posession.
