Really nice photos. Thanks for sharing them with us. How did you manage to get that close to a bush baby?

Karen Blixen gives a very good story of a pet female bushbuck in "Out of Africa" or "Shadows on the Grass". Which later leaves her house to return to the wild.

The eland cow caught in the gate. It is amazing it survived. These wild animals when caught properly in fences or gates often get so stressed they injure themselves or have a stroke or whatever and even with considerable efforts die later. When caught up they panic so much it is often difficult ot free them safely and once so tired that it is safe, it is often too late. Good to hear it survived being freed.

Some interesting photos. Like the pyscodelic camo job on the bakkie.

Nice and enjoyable photos. I am also amazed that the Eland cow survived, sometimes they are also lucky.

Cool pictures Christer. It's always nice to see some of the other stuff that one encounters on an african hunting trip, and not just trophy pictures.
