Oxpecker birds were their constant companions, a source of both annoyance and amusement
Watching them drink was an exercise in awkwardness and comedy. The young female in the 3rd pic scared herself when she realised she was a little too close to snoozing croc.
Some kids are simply forever hopeful of an easy meal - even when they're not too little!
A bit of friendly push and shove with this pair of young males.
This young male met a sad end at the teeth of 2 young lionesses. However, the skin is tough so on the day we saw this carcass only a soft delicacy had been stripped from the body - perhaps waiting for another species to gut it for them.
