Krueger National Park
Several days of no Internet,
but we did not miss it. Except for not being able to update the Blog, we were
happy to spend many hours searching out animals. And animals we did see, lots
of them. Our eyes are tired from looking and looking, hour after hour, into the
African landscape. We tried very hard to see a leopard, but were not lucky. But
we did see one lion, six, yes six rhinos, and many of the other big ones like
elephants, giraffes, hyppos and buffalos.
It is sad to report, that
poaching (German= Wilderer) is still going on. We did come across a scary sight, with several
poachers lying on the ground along the highway, police guarding them with guns.
None of the poachers moved, but we don’t think they were dead. But we were told
by a local, that the police will shot them if need be. Since January of this
year alone, 371 Rhinos have been poached in Krueger Park, well over 500 in all
of South Africa.
