Babies

Our favorite pictures were of all the babies we saw. Even though it was wintertime, there were still a lot of younguns around. The cubs below are the ones I referred to above as just sitting on a rock waiting for their mom to call them.



The baby elephant was just the cutest thing -- and it's amazing how big they grow. We saw a big daddy who was taller than most of the trees around. GINORMOUS!


The ranger told us that the zebras protect themselves by gathering in large groups. All their stripes blend together and the predators get confused, thinking it's one really large animal. You can see how well the stripes blend in this picture here.
