Cheetah at w7... giraffes were staring, impalas barking and eventually
even I saw the cat.
She walked up the road, crossed in front of us and went to rest close
by. We watched her scanning the surroundings in that typical cheetah
way... body stretched on the ground and just the head popped up. Great.
We found then two of the males of bushbuck opposite to where they
killed the giraffe while the females and the third male were still
eating the carcass.
As we were feeling hungry we drove some kilometers and had
breakfast... as we were eating two lioness went in the river bed to
drink.. we had a loong look before they walked away... super duper....
We drove on and found them on the road.... they walked soon into shade.
Eventually as we were driving towards the airstrip we met our rasta
friend Chogela who told us that few hundred meters forward there was
another cheetah... we went there and found this other female... she
went down the ruaha river and tried a long chase to impala but with
slim chances that soon became zero when she run out of fuel.... a
missed one but still a hunt,
Not bad for a morning drive.
