Pilanesberg Wild Life

We took a day off from work and drove
2 1/2 hours to Pilanesberg a wilderness
filled with wild animals that live in their natural habitats.

It is a beautiful part of the country. The
terrain looks much like Northern California.







All these animals were seen as we drove through the park
There are many other kinds of animals living in this reserve but these are the ones that came out to view during our time in the park.
.



























The watering hole is shared by all the animals. These giraffe come along with the water buffalo and the wildebeest. They are very watchful for predators. Cats share the same space.




















This fellow along with a couple other ostrich were walking across the road
we came along. They seemed totally unaffected byour presence. In fact this fellow



came right up to the car. We had to close the window to keep him from putting his



head in the car. The reall are big birds, taller than the car.





















































This fellow invited himself to lunch. He is really quite partial to chips, french fries to



Americans.























Wort Hogs






zebras are a beautiful animal.
