A few pictures

Today has been a ridiculously slow day....only two dogs came into clinic. Bizzie, Stefaans and I went to the hippo pool for a picinic. Saw hippos, zebra, and water buck. I forgot to mention that last week for dinner we had impala...it was interesting. Not my favorite. Here are a few pictures from the last week:



This is a young Sable bull behind the clinic.







Neil (in gray) and the helicopter pilot with the buffalo I vaccinated.











Here is yhe buffalo after given the antidote and vaccinations -- I didn't kill it! They didn't warn us that they were releasing it, so all of the sudden we see people running and jumping on the truck. Needless to say, but we quickly followed suit.






Hippos from the hippo pool. They had been sleeping but some loud guys woke them up. Dumb since hippos will charge and run you over.




The zebra. I definitely have better pictures of them though.
