Today we went on a morning drive to do an animal survey. The first animal we saw were the 4 rhino that chased John and I yesterday. Check out the how big the male rhino’s horn is. It’s 40 inches long, which is ridiculously big. Thank god he didn’t catch up to us yesterday… After we saw the rhino, we went to patch up the tube of the tire we popped yesterday, and then we went to track down Sabella. She was still on her Kudu kill that she killed 3 days ago, but I doubt she will be there tomorrow, because it looked like the Kudu meat was going bad. Cheetah are very picky when it comes to the freshness of their meat. When the meat goes bad, she’ll move away and digest for a couple days, and then kill another antelope. After looking at Sabella for some time, we came back to our living quarters, and for the 3rd time, the damn Vervet monkeys raided our kitchen. Evidently the monkeys have the ability to pull the handle of the door down and open it. We came to a horrible mess of egg everywhere, monkey poo on the couches, and rice crispies EVERYWERE. After the clean up, we drove up to Kondoa Mountain, and took a nice hike on top. I crawled towards a territorial male Black Wildebeest, and it starting going crazy… quite comical. We also saw a dead snake, which we are yet to identify, but most likely poisonous. We just returned back to our living quarters, and are making some food on the braai. Cold, but lovely night!
