Kafue Animals

These are some of the animals that we saw in Kafue National Park.  You will notice lots more trees and bushes in the photos.  In Kafue, we were mostly in the woodlands or on one of the rivers.  We saw fewer animals but still saw plenty.  It was just a different experience but also very enjoyable.

This first photo is no contest winner but this was the only Blue Wildebeest that we saw.  I don’t remember seeing any Blue Wildebeest in eastern Africa and this one did have a distinct blue color.

This is a small herd of Puku.  We didn’t see big numbers of Puku on this trip but saw several decent size groups in Kafue.

Cory got a good photo of this young Bushbuck.  I’m sure those big ears help it hear predators approaching.

We must have seen over fifty Vervet Monkeys, like this one.  They were in most areas that we stayed and didn’t cause too much trouble.

It’s hard choosing elephant photos, since we got so many.  I liked this photo of Cory’s.  These are two young elephants and I’m not sure what game they are playing but they reminded me of my twin grandsons fooling around.
