You are quite clearly looked up upon by the little male alien :-)
The female little alien is too busy with technology to appreciate her dad lol

What type of mongoose is that? It looks so unfamiliar :-?

Adorable bushbaby :-0

The next morning we all got up early to pack the cars and head back home :-(

It was sad to leave Sirheni

We drove the S56 slowly but no animals around

At the Babalala intersection our first animals

About 5km further we found a few hyenas next to the road. They all looked very nervous and kept looking in the same direction

Then we noticed a dead hyena which was probably killed by a lion and realized why they are so nervous

They were moving around the whole time

One found some leftovers and ran up the road with it

Not sure if that was part of his friend

I wonder if they would eat one of their own? Probably, yes. -O-

The dead hyena

The one hyena grabbed some leftovers and ran up the road
IMG_9100.jpg
A jackal also popped out wanting some of the leftovers
IMG_9124.jpg
They started looking nervous again

Next moment the hyena dropped the leftover and ran into the bush

Not sure why and we couldn't see the anything

After waiting a few minutes we decided to carry on

The only other sighting on our way to Punda Maria gate was this predator
