Hey, Donny, no Coloradan gives a fuck about your portrait in which you look portly.

Travel Tip: Don’t come to Colorado if the smell of marijuana offends you.
Let’s get something straight: the People of this beautiful state legalized recreational marijuana 10 years ago for use on own own property. If you don’t like it, don’t come here. Fuck right off . . .

I’ve become a huge fan of the wildebeest, a critter I did not know existed until about a month ago.

Our guide in Pilanesberg, Emmanuel, pronounced zebra with a short e, like the e in ten.

Here’s a wart hog and a pair of rhinos. Game wardens trim their horns so that poachers have no reason to kill them. I’m told it’s not painful for them, like getting their nails trimmed.

This is the dung beetle of South Africa. We got to witness its sacred mating ritual, in a frankly creepy way.
The male spends days rolling dung to attract a female. He falls off, flails on his back, gets back up to find his ball—it’s hard work. The female, if dazzled by his dung, 1/2

More animal pictures from South Africa. I saw the Big Five, but I was really looking for the Ugly Five. Love those warthogs and wildebeests.

Honestly, this was one of the most unpleasant moments of my life, but I’m still glad I did it, if that makes any sense.
