Image Description
On our first evening in Amboseli we found this zebra carcass. I admit, that wasn’t difficult, because the flying vultures and the bickering of the hyenas automatically led us to it. After the hyenas had had their fill, it was the vultures’ turn. But that was not taking into account this serval cat! Suddenly it jumped out of the grass - previously invisible - and the vultures were gone! It posed next to the carcass, as if proud of ‘its’ zebra.
Amboseli, Kenya
