Paul Kruger Gate Bridge, we saw this elephant being attacked by crocodiles. His family were already gone, you could see them somewhere in the far background. Slowly, the injured little one found a track of his family and began to follow it.

Paul Kruger Gate is the closest entrance to Skukuza and the quickest way to get in and out of the Park from Kruger's 'capital'. One is confronted by the large bust of Paul Kruger by sculptor Coert Steynberg as one crosses the Sabie. @SANParksKNP

What a horrible thing, not the bust, but this collection of stones trying to make it look like an artwork 0' Maybe it looks better from the front O**

I think its good ..got that rustic, earthy African Feel and ambiance ...Sure its not a Louvre exhibit ..but that would be out of place here in Kruger as we all try and keep the wilderness going against the tide
