 The main entrance to the park. |
 A pack of mongoose right next to our room! |
 These are fascinating animals! I saw a special on them recently on the Discovery Channel, which was filmed at this park! How cool is that?! Learn more about them by clicking on the "Animals Facts" link. |
 One night after dinner as we walked back to our room, I saw one scurrying off with an energy bar wrapper that I thrown in the garbage earlier. I scared the mongoose and he dropped the wrapper. I took it from him. He was mad, yelling at me in mongoose, but he doesn't need to eat people food! |
 The collars that are on them is so they can be tracked. Don't you just want to take one home?! |
 This is what we saw out our balcony - warthogs! |
 See how it's on bended knee to eat? Why does it do this? Is this a male or female? If you don't know, better check out the "Animal Fact" link! |
 On our drive through the park to get to the chimpanzee gorge, we saw a clan of hyenas. These are one of the ugliest animals in all of Africa. They have sloped butts! |
 When we were in Kenya, we saw just a clan of two hyenas. This is quite a big clan! |
 Sunning themselves. Who is more dominate, the male or female? Better check "Animal Facts!" |
 We also saw a hippo far from the water. We were out early this day, so it hadn't made its way back to the river yet. |
 I don't mean to make a big deal about butts, but don't hippos have the ugliest butts? They are just so cute from the front, then they turn around! |
 The elusive baboon. They are just so darn hard to photograph! We saw it on our drive back to the lodge. |
 Can you see the troop of baboons? Click on this photograph to get a better look. |
 We also saw a herd of waterbucks. Do you know why they stink? Better check "Animal Facts!" |
 A bull waterbuck. A beautiful animal. Who are its enemies? |
