Awesome! One of my pet hates (if that isn't a misleading term) is so-called nature-lovers (I didn't say "animal lovers" because I didn't want Wattie to get too excited) who live under the lah-lah cloud that 'mother nature' is a warm and fuzzy thing. Make no mistake, 'mother nature' can be a bitch!
Christmas 2011 I took my Ozzie girlfriend to South Africa to visit family and show her around (the good stuff anyway) the old country. We spent a few days in a super private reserve in the Kruger Park. We were very lucky (pats self on back) to spot a Gnu (known locally as a 'Blue Wildebeest') calving. It was awesome, birthing, first steps the lot. Niari named it "New Gnu".
The next night we were equally lucky to find a leopard kill. And over the next 48 hours watched in stages the leopard consume the entire thing - you guessed it - a baby Wildebeest. Niari had to come up with the addition: "New Gnu is leopard poo!"
Sometimes the circle of life is rather small.
THAT is nature...
