Today is the last post on our visit to Kragga Kamma Game Park on Sunday. I got a nice close up of a young blue wildebeest next to the road. There are two types of wildebeest. The Blue Wildebeest has a black tail and the Black Wildebeest has a white tail. The blue wildebeest is the common one of the two and is world famous for its huge migration in the Serengeti and Masai Mara game reserves in Tanzania and Kenya.
The wildebeest is also called the clowns of the veld because of their funny look. Legend has it that the wildebeest was put together from all the left over pieces when the animals were created. It has the face of a cow, the horns of a buffalo, the mane of a lion, the legs of an antelope and the tail of a horse.
