I suppose the important thing is that the cats don't know or care whether they have names! lol

I do think it helps with research and records! :yes:

For example visitors reporting on the tusker thread will be demotivated if they are told it is elephant number 3452.

Thanks Pumbaa, the tiny ostriches were very well hidden in the long grass :shock:

We decided to leave the leopard sighting and do a trip to Monro and back in case her brother had appeared again. No such luck, so a few more shots of her as she started to venture further away from the road

Happy with the end of our trip, we meandered back to camp. Along the way there was a cape fox out in the same spot as our first evening drive \O

Image

Then a bit beyond Houmoed we found a few more cape fox relaxing next to the road. They didn't like the car much, so it was just a couple of photos before they trotted off for the night O:V

Image

Image

We pulled in one last time at Samevloeiing where the moon was rising but everything else was peaceful

Image

Back at camp we packed up as much as we could ready for an early morning start heading back to PE.
Thanks to everyone who has followed along this TR... I'm sure we'll be back at some stage in the future! In the meantime let me leave you with some of our video highlights (yes I forced myself to remember to take video this time)....

That is a very nice video! Could be a promotion short film for the park O:V

Thanks for sharing your trip with us. And am happy to hear you liked it enough to bear the long haul from P.E. again to return. O\/
