Too sweet to keep off..Posted by: ranger in MBT - Daily Game Reports on Aug 16, 2012 Tagged in: Bushtops Daily Game Reports

Reporting Date: 16.8.2012
The great migration is trampling and mowing the long grass in the Mara Game Reserve at the moment and in some secrion where the wildbeest and zebras have not set afoot the grass is still high and giving the smaller animals tough time to graze. Daniel and his guests drove into two warthogs that heard the car arrive and were reluctant to give way meaning the food was too sweet to give way.
