surveillance

this curious Black-backed jackal came out of the bushes in the early morning, crossed the road in front of us and instead of running away walked right up to our car and looked us over a few times, posed for many photos and finally went on his way in a slow trot....the first time I've actually experienced a wild animal come up to us without being nervous, he looked in excellent condition too!
