Two impala males fightings
I got to see a Thomson's gazelle give birth yesterday. The baby was so cute. They are really small when born. I also took down data on the event for Blair, since this is what she is studying. The mom hides the baby in the grass shortly after birth. The baby stays hidden most of the time for the first 2 months of life until it is big enough to follow the herd around. The mom comes to nurse it a couple of times a day, but otherwise it hides motionless to try to avoid being found and eaten by a jackal or cheetah.
