Credits to Londolozi Game Reserve: "Nyala bulls have a slightly different approach to impala rams, preferring the intimidation tactic. This bull was displaying for the benefit of another male, trying to look as big as possible in the hope that the other bull would back down, and in that way actual physical confrontation would be avoided."

"After watching the documentary on breaching Great Whites, Larry the hippo could not resist the temptation...."  *This image is copyright of its original author If you have a hippo week you must have a big yawn as well.
Impressive how big that yawn is and how big those teeth or tusks are. Now we know why they cause so many deaths each year in rural Africa...!  *This image is copyright of its original author Got to love the Chobe river.... it just has that something that you cannot explain!
If I was a hippo I'd probably live there as well.  *This image is copyright of its original author Well it's the dawn of a new week - however sometimes I wish I was like this hippo just staying right in bed... :)
