Wednesday May 17 (Day 4)
After breakfast we set out at 7:00 to check the baits. Shortly into our drive, the trackers spot a kudu cow and bull in the thick brush, which immediately gets the blood pumping! We got out of the truck to try to get a better look, but the bull cunningly stayed where we couldn't see his horns.Eventually the ran off into the thicker bush and out of sight, oh well we will try again later. 2 of the baits had been hit but again by females (one of which is on camera and video).Even though it was a female, it was pretty darn neat and exciting to watch the video of her eating on the impala! We will carry on looking for another impala to hang in the area of the male's tracks from the previous day.
Here is a pic of the trackers and Lin hanging the previously taken impala
In the afternoon we take a walk down a river bed looking for tracks. We come across some zebra and giraffe while on the walk.
About 4:45 we get on more impala and I'm able to take one at about 150 yards. We then hang him up at the end of the day and head in for some beers and dinner.
