Although these beautiful birds have unusual colours, a distinctive call and unique feathers, their camouflage and habits can make them hard to see when visiting Makuleke. Understanding their habits can assist us enjoy their unusual beauty.
Have you ever asked yourself if animals get emotional? It sure seems so when you watch a lioness gently cleansing het cubs. When a leopard gets wildly frustrated by a hyena who tries to steal a kill. Or when a group of elephants mourns a lost family member, gently touching the body of a deceased one with its trunk, standing around it in silence. There is something very intimate going on there.
