This young baboon was playing with another from the troop. Just like your family dog, he'd frezze with his head down and tail in the air, then suddenly take off when the other approached. - Wild Earth Photography- powered by SmugMug

wildearth > While travelling south of Skukuza in Kruger National Park, I ran across a pack of African wild dogs one evening. This one wears a radio collar to that researchers can track him.

wildearth > While travelling south of Skukuza in Kruger National Park, I ran across a pack of African wild dogs one evening. There were around 15 or so in the pack and they we quite playful. Although they're only distantly related to domestic dogs, their behavior reminded me of them.

wildearth > While driving across the Sabi River in Kruger National Park, I came across this baboon sitting on the bridge rail looking out over the water. She had an air of wisdom about her that I wanted to capture.

wildearth > The river was up and lots of water was flowing through the Crocodile River in Kruger National Park. I spotted this crocodile fishing by sitting in the fastest part of the water with his mouth open. Every now and then, a fish would swim in and he'd grab it and eat it. Clever boy!

wildearth > This is one of three young bulls I found near Satara in Kruger National Park. They were quite playful both with each other and with me... a little disconcerting at that size.

wildearth > As I was taking photos of the first elephant, I heard a loud cracking sound, as of a large branch being snapped in two. The thing was that the sound seemed to come from behind me out the left side of the car. It seemed almost in slow motion that I turned and looked out the passenger window, where I saw only four huge legs, the bottom part of a trunk and two very large tusks. Imagine my embarrassment in being snuck up on by an elephant! This one was a bit agitated and he bluff-charged by vehicle just after this was taken.
