the sable ( hippotragus niger niger ) is maybe the most beautiful african antelope.
perhaps a little frightened by my presence or in a gesture of challenge he started to pee.
a big bull like this can reach +230kgs and the horns arrive till +160cm long!!!
they are proud animals used to confront their natural enemies with the horns ...unfortunatly their beauty expose them as an hunting trophy.
hunting and habitat destruction reduced drastically the population.
all the 4 african subspecies are critically endangered or vulnerable.
the niger niger is the most "common" subspecie but just to give an idea in zimbabwe the wild population drop in 20 years from 25000es to...450!!!
in south africa and botswana situation is much better but you can see them just in a few parks.
mokala national park has been opened to give home to some rare antelopes including sables.
we hope for a better future.

Driving back home via Torridon we stopped to picture this wonderful house overlooking Loch Coultrie with the Sgorr Ruadh mountain range bearing down in the distance. Such a picturesque and peacefully scenic area to live in.

After getting a late start, the spring woodland flowers are really starting to pop out. We visited an area where we always find Spring Beauties (Claytonia virginica) and they were living up to their name.
