Addo 2

At Kruger we jokingly called all the massive elephant poop in the road "Kruger Speed Bumps". Here at Addo they actually have signs saying don't run over the dung or the Flightless Dung Beetles that inhabit them: turns out the beetles are an endangered species!

Then there are the ant hills. In northern Kruger they looked like drip castles and could be as much as 10 feet tall. Here they are more like a classic bee hive shape and can be up to 5 feet tall.

At the gate into Addo they have a couple of elephant skulls that are intriguing because of the honeycomb structure that you can see in the picture. I can't remember the exact function but it has something to do with their sense of smell or hearing.

We saw a lot of Warthogs, more than we saw in Kruger. Red Hartebeast is yet another variety of antelope that we saw. It name comes from its red color and the heart shape of its horns.

Finally, the monkey sitting on the wires. We wondered why he wasn't fried. He obviously knew more than we did as further down the road all the wires were down and it became evident that the power lines were no longer in use.
