Zebras & Ostriches & Jackels Oh My


Spotting an ostrich isn’t much of a challenge! They are big! They are abundant! Same with zebras--but it was still thrilling to see them wild and uncaged.



I was surprised at how pretty jackels are. The very word has a nasty connotation. But this “common” jackel looks a lot like a fox.


On the other hand, hyenas look as evil as you thought. There are a lot of hyenas in the Crater. They’re very important to the environment.
