South Africa – Antelope

Today I have four members of the antelope family. The first is a kudu. I love the way she can totally direct her ears to hear from different directions. The blue wildebeest we saw a handful of one day. They were nice, but didn’t let us get too close. Trying to hide in the grass is a waterbuck with a nice big set of antlers. Finally is a group of impala, referred to as the McDonalds of the jungle, not only because they are ‘fast food’, but they actually have what looks like the arches on their behinds.
