The interesting looking animal is a Red Hartebeest.  It is one of larger and fastest antelopes in Africa.

This magnificent antelope is a Kudu.  Its horns are amazing and so beautiful!

Here are a couple of Wild Dogs running together.

We drove very far to the southern section of the Madikwe in search of the Wild Dog.  We were working with other vehicles but we were the only vehicle to get a glimpse of this quick-moving pack.  Wow, what a fantastic treat!!

The Hyena pair have moved into brighter light and you can really see those spots!  Two other Hyena are in the background; we assume they are cubs but can't be certain.

Our first glimpse of this pair of Spotted Hyena.  Wow!

This beautiful bird is a Kori Bustard.  It's the largest flying bird native to Africa. 

On our way home from an evening drive, this Owl was sitting on the road.

A beautiful sunset in the Madikwe Game Reserve.
