A lot of the topography in inland South Africa looks a lot like parts of Texas. Then all of the sudden you will drive into an area that is just Savannah. It is pretty striking. Another college student drove the four of us to the Lion and Rhino nature preserve just up the road from the Thatchery.
Andy was excited.
This was much different than a zoo. We drove through a wide open area and would stop to see some of the wildlife on the way. We were dropped off at a place called the 'Animal Creche.' It was a nursery for various animals and had pens for other interesting African animals. This really scary ugly bird guarded the entrance.
And this juvenile white lion reminded us that lions are really just big housecats.
