Awww bless, lovely to see Amber and her cubs again cheers

The Wildie did well to get away from them affraid

Thanks Lai :)

Great to see Amber and her cubs but that Wildie so deserved to get away. It was definiately out numbered and made a great escape. I know our wonderful cheetahs have to eat but the wildie so deserved to live that day......Brave Wildie cheers

Thanks WS - what an amazing relationship they must have. It would be lovely to see them playing together outside, and what a gorgeous big dog.

A good weekend smile (on a Monday for me)

What a lovely clip, certainly made me :) this morning cheers

Domestic cats & dogs get on well together in a house so if this two are raised together why should it be any different ?

I bet they go mad together outside Lai and I Agree

it would be fun to watch them in action Very Happy

**littlewid** Mon Jul 25, 2011 9:11 pm

Brilliant clip WS cheers

they look so settled with each other don't they. An odd match but a lovely one none the less I love you

Thats a lot of hard work for one mum What a Face

no wonder she is the dominant female, she's got to be something special but how hard must that be for the other mums but that is obviously how order is kept and how they work as a pack, with one leader in control.
I do love the wild dogs and i'm keeping my fingers crossed Doogs that you, Lai and Anne-Marie get to see them bounce

More on the Africa theme - the endangered Grevy zebra. Beautiful markings and lovely big furry ears Laughing

Thanks Lai, The Grevy stripe pattern really is quite tight isnt it.

Aren't they just beautiful I love you

they do look so sweet and gentle and I wonder if that is their entire nature as they seem unable to defend themselves. I know Lions are hard to put up a good fight against but these are heavy animals too and you would think with a mighty kick to them as well but maybe they are just passive in nature.
Thats a lovely clip of them Lai and they truely are amazing to look at and have the most endearing faces. zebra

Thanks for posting that Lai, they are very stunning zebra

and I loved the little one, very I love you

Looking forward to seeing them when we are in Samburu and also very much looking forward to seeing Reticulated Giraffe

again (only found in the north of Kenya). I was blown away by how stunningly beautiful they were when we saw them back in 2006 Todays Smile - Page 13 853843

Doogs. The north has some particularly beautiful animals not seen in the Mara. Have you seen a Gerenuk when you've been there? Such timid lovely animals, big ears and a long neck. I've only seen a mother and young once in all the times I've been there. One to look out for.

Lai

Safari Maiden Thu Jul 28, 2011 4:24 pm

It looks extremely elegant Lai with its long neck. Thanks for sharing.

SM

**Doogs** Thu Jul 28, 2011 4:31 pm

Yes we did Lai and I Agree

they are very beautiful I love you

Hope to get one of that good shots of them on their hind legs eating from the trees - they didn't 'perform' that for us back in 2006 lol!

**Laikipia** Thu Jul 28, 2011 6:05 pm

What a fantastic array of 'buddies' I love you

that has certainly made me smile this morning :)

All of them were very cute but my two favourites, no need to say why, were the Boxer Dog / Lamb and the horse / cat - loved them I love you

thanks WS

**littlewid** Sat Jul 30, 2011 10:40 pm

Gorgeous WS. The world would be a miserable place without animals. Amazing friendships there I love you

**Laikipia** Mon Aug 01, 2011 11:53 am

that was a really magical clip WS - WOW

what an amazing collection of animals you wouldn't expect to see together. I loved them all and thought the music with the clips was so apt.

A great start to the week WS (although I know it was the weekend smile Bump

)

One for today. I'm a big fan of Joanna Lumley and some of the causes she supports.
