Der Pavian gehört zur Gruppe der Backentaschen Affen. Die Backentaschen sind seine "Einkaufstasche".
The baboon belongs to the group of cheek pouch monkeys. The cheek pockets are his "shopping bag".
SÜDAFRIKA( South-Africa), Im Kruger-Nationalpark,
Man hat schon viele Tiere gesehen, aber bei weitem nicht so viele wie erwartet. Bei so kurzen Trips gehört eben auch ein wenig Glück dazu. Der Wildpark ist ja auch riesengroß
und schon wenige Kilometer weiter tummeln sich unter Umständen zig Spezies.

ich kann da nicht widerstehen, ich muss die kleinen Kerlchen fotografieren
Dieser Wasserfall ist am Stadtrand von Winterthur und hat den Namen Affenschlucht, warum dieser Name kann ich nicht sagen, Affen habe ich dort auf jedenfall noch nie gesehen :-) Plätscherndes Wasser wirkt auf mich sehr beruhigend, weshalb ich sehr gerne solche Orte aufsuche. Ich hoffe das Bild wirkt auch auf andere beruhigend!
Ich wünschen Euch allen einen wundervollen Tag.
Vielen Dank für Euren Besuch, die jeweils vielen Likes und Kommentare, ich freue mich immer sehr darüber!
This waterfall is on the outskirts of Winterthur and has the name Monkey Canyon, why I can not say that name, monkeys I have never seen there in any case :-) Splashing water has a very calming effect on me, which is why I like to visit such places. I hope the picture also has a calming effect on others!
I wish you all a wonderful day.
Thank you for your visit, each with many likes and comments, I am always very happy about it!
This photo is part of probably the most strange and in retrospect the most agonizing behavior that we have ever seen in a predator.
It had rained that morning and the safari had been very uneventful.
Suddenly our guide heard nagging and shouting from monkeys in the bush.
Quickly the cause of the theater was identified:
this leopard had authorized a vervet monkey baby, probably the mother had "lost" it in the excitement - vervet monkeys carry their offspring under their bellies, the babys cling to their mother.
Instead of killing the baby quickly, the cat played with him.
The cat occasionally let go of the little one, only to bully him again a short time later. She bit down just so hard that the monkey was not hurt. She took it in her mouth, as if she were transporting her own offspring.
The cat apparently used the tiny one as bait in the intention that one of the adults would become careless and start a "rescue operation".
We watched this spectacle for 30 minutes. None of the monkeys got cocky and we left the "crime scene", because we had to our bushflight.
The cat had not killed the monkey until then.Happiness is a way of travel, not a destination.
