Description: This lone female has been evicted from the main family group. We saw her about a year ago just inside the northern boundary fence of the reserve at Scarborough, when the large scar on her left hindquarter was a massive gaping flesh wound. One of the TMNP rangers surmised that she'd been in a fight with another female. It looks as if part of the wound has re-opened, but she didn't seem bothered by it. This was a wonderful close encounter very close to Sirkelsvlei.

Description: Family group with foal (8 months). Junior somehow looked a little poorly, standing around lethargically, and then lying down, virtually immobile for what seemed like an inordinately long time. (Unlike his mom, who just had a roll and got up again.)

Description: Originated in the grasslands and Steppes of Eurasia and transported worldwide by humans.These are possibly the descendents of those that evaded the roundup of work horses in 1960s and 1970s or descendants of horses by British or Boer forces or ... The skeleton looks like an old horse (teeth) that maybe got caught in the fence or maybe just died of old age.
