Didn't think it was possible to outdue the assertive baby elephant but the next night was close! We visited a hyena den and momma and pups were out! The young ones were running around acting like regular puppies. More and more came out of the woods till there were about 20!

At 1st, the elephants were busy just mowing down the shrubs and grass. One matriarch gave us a little "back off" charge, so we did just that!
Sound on!
Sound on!

One day we stopped to stretch and we could see some elephants in the distance. We headed out to see if we could get a better view. OMG did we! We were eventually surrounded by no less than 30. Earlier in the day we came across the bones of one that died about 2 years ago.

I SPOTTED A CHEETAH! That's tough to do because the guide or tracker usually see them 1st. It was only 15 feet of the "road" to start then hid with her freshly killed baby antelope. Later we say her about 30 feet away with a full belly.
Next two show the cub with momma and just how close we are.

Our greeter was taking us to our room and we saw some sort of stick bug. She was excited and said that was her 1st. Always fun to have your guides take photos of what they are showing. We got in our room and before long had to call reception to have a harmless green snake removed! (And NOW I know)!

On our way into the reserve, BEFORE check in, we saw a momma and about a month old cub! The guides were jealous because we were the 1st ones to see these 2. Everyone got to see them later that evening but it was fun to be first!
