No sunscreen? Get a mud bath!
Elephants take as many mud baths as they can not only because it is a fun bonding activity for the entire herd, but also to add a layer of protection to their skin from the sun’s scorching rays and the sting of insect bites.

A Leopard’s Tell-Tale Tail…
A Leopard uses its long, white-tipped tail to indicate several things. A flicking tail usually implies excitement and a tail held very high or straight up usually means that the leopard is on high alert and investigating scent.

Beneath the inner corner of a Dik-dik’s eye is a dark spot that contains a preorbital gland. This gland secretes a tar-like liquid that the Dik-dik will use to smear onto the twigs & grass surrounding the area that it wants to scent-mark as its territory.

All felines have whiskers, but what’s it for? Unlike a human’s moustache, these wiry wisps of hair are not just for looks. Lion whiskers help them navigate through tight, dark places and alert them for changes in airflow, which is helpful when hunting for prey.

Birds of the same beautiful feathers…
Unlike a lot of its fair feathered friends, the lilac-breasted roller (“kambu” in Swahili) is not dimorphic. This means that both males and females share the same vibrant colouring and general appearance.

Born blind and only opening its eyes after 3-4 days, a lion cub is totally dependent on its mother for the first several weeks of its life. Its eyes are more grey-blue in hue at first and only start turning into a gorgeous golden colour after 2-3 months.

Breeding is better when the grass is greener…
Like a few other mammals in the Serengeti, the Topi usually breed and time the birth of its calf after the rains have passed and young grass shoots are plenty.

When neighbours drop by to say “Hi!”
Here at One Nature Nyaruswiga, it always lifts our spirits when any of our ‘wild’ neighbours pass through or stay a bit for a meal or two.

Like most primates, an Olive baboon will perceive prolonged eye contact as a sign of aggression or challenge to its authority. So, when faced with a baboon, it’s best to simply look away to avoid the risk of an attack.

“Only One Earth”
This is the theme for this year’s #WorldEnvironmentDay which hopes to raise awareness that as the world’s population steadily increases, our ecosystems become more and more overworked & will very soon become unable to meet our demands.

The lion plays a crucial role in keeping the balance of the ecosystem. Without lions to help regulate the number of herbivores in the #Serengeti, grasslands will become overgrazed & sick prey will remain unculled, spreading disease & hereditary defects.
