Gemsbok kill - the clean-up squads.

We were also at Namutoni last month (October 2010). The rains had just started but there were still many animals at the waterholes. Lions had killed a gemsbok at Klein Namutoni waterhole but the best action was the interaction amongst the black-backed jackals and the lappet-faced vultures...!
