Gus and Margie

06/10/2015 at 9:12 AM between Vertiende and Dertiende

Gus had made a kill of a baby springbok. He was eating, but kept calling for Margie, who eventually joined him.

On the 9th they were at Vertiende waterhole area - lying under distant tree.

On the 10th they were still in the Vertiende waterhole area.
We saw them crossing the top loop road into riverbed area, but did not see them emerge in the riverbed.

Gus and Margie

11/10/2015 at the north end of Vertiende loop

They had a small kill of something; hunted springboks but failed.

Image
Margie left, Gus right

Saw them that afternoon laying right in the road, unfazed by the cars.

Margie

Margie has obvious lack of fur on her chin - looks like her tongue is perpetually hanging out, but is just bare chin skin (injury vs. skin condition?)

On the 18th at 5:13 PM between Sitsas and Craig Lockhart
- lying on the ground.
