"African Recluse" Leopards don't like being around people, and this one climbed to the highest branch on the tree in an attempt to escape our cameras.
"More than a Mouthful" Hippos can be downright mean--and if you get too close, you'll see some action!
"African Sunset" As an exciting day on safari ends, night falls and life--and death--on the savannah just begins for some creatures.
"Hear Me Roar" At the top of the food chain, this amazing predator has gained the title of King of Beasts, even though the females do most of the hunting. However, this male, along with 2 others, had just killed a huge Cape Buffalo for breakfast.
"I Wanna Hug" Looking forever like he wants a gentle hug, this young lion watched as our Land Rover was stuck in the mud--realizing that we couldn't get away. He sensed our predicament, and wanted us for lunch!
"Mighty Pachyderm" Elephants are, indeed, imposing creatures--especially when you get "up close & personal"!
"Get off my Back" Actually, birds like this are quite welcome by rhinos…they feed on insects!
"Spotted Streak" Long, thin legs, a spring-like spine, and a tail used as a rudder makes the cheetah the fastest and most agile of cats while on the hunt. Unfortunately, cheetahs are smaller than lions or leopards, and hyenas will often steal their meals!
"Grass Nibbler" Impalas are beautiful & timid antelopes found in many parts of Africa--and, a favorite food of many of Africa's large cats.
"You & me together forever, baby" Sunsets are romantic--even for baboons!
"Grace in Motion" Seemingly in slow motion as these giants gallop across the savanna, giraffes are among the most graceful creatures in the world.
"Night Vision" Leopards hunt mainly at night, and their keen senses of vision and hearing help them locate their prey.
