Rock Hyrax (Procavia capensis).
Taken at Kariba Safari Lodge, Lake Kariba, Zimbabwe.
On sentry duty.
Rock hyraxes are fairly common in most of sub-saharan Africa. We first met them in Kenya while staying at a Safari camp. Unbeknownst to us was that a resident population had taken up lodgings in the guests sleeping accommodations! Not having encountered them before we were quite alarmed as they kept waking us up during the night with their hyperactivity and loud cries!
