Tanzania 2013 - Videos |
||
I've tried to make a few videos. Apologies that some are a bit jerky but hopefully I'll get better over time! |
||
First a nice gentle one - a Mum and Daughter Cheetah giving each other a bath. |
||
This Elephant was really close to the road. Not sure how he lost his tusk but he looked a bit lopsided when we saw him face on. |
||
We saw a few Spotted Hyena while we were there. This one very kindly gave us a twirl before wandering off. |
||
It was lovely to see these 3 Black Rhino wandering around the Ngorongoro Crater. We saw 6 in all but the others were too far away to get a good photo. This family consisted of a male, a female and a female calf. Rather a large calf and one that should probably have left home a while ago. |
||
There were thousands of Wildebeest around together with their fragile looking calves. The calves were quite playful, jumping around etc but a lot of them got lost if they go separated from their mum (thankfully we didn't see any). |
||
These Black Faced Vervet Monkeys were full of beans when we saw them in Lake Manyara National Park. |
||
These four male Lions were lovely to watch. They all wanted to be in the same space so were jostling each other. We stayed with them quite a while. |
||
It turned out that there was a pile of elephant dung that they were rolling about in. By the end they all looked a bit dirty but they seemed really happy. |
||
From now on the clips include sex, violence and murder so please don't go past this point if you are of a nervous disposition. |

|
Here we have a Mum cheetah and 2 Cubs just about to have a snack. The snack is a Thompson's Gazelle |
|
A bit more gruesome now as two Cheetah brothers bring down a Wildebeest. |
||
They worked really well as a team. No going for one of the new born calves for these two - they wanted a proper meal. |
||
Finally, after bringing down the Wildebeest and suffocating it the Cheetah brothers get breakfast! We decided to have our breakfast while we watched them - good job we're not squeamish. |
