On Thursday, June 22nd, the guys work up and went on a bush walk in the morning around the lodging area. We learned about the significance and roles of several native trees in different African cultures. Afterwards, we learned how to analyze different animal tracks on the path and tell what animals they belonged to and which direction they were traveling. After the walk, we enjoyed lasagna at the lodge.
After lunch, we transported to an animal rehabilitation center nearby. At Moholoholo Animal Rehabilitation Centre we saw native eagles, vultures, and several other species of birds, and we were even able to go into some of the enclosures with the birds. Then we saw several types of lions and we all cheetahs, leopards, hyenas and little badgers. Through this experience we learned about how organizations like this one we visited helped fight the poaching crises in South Africa.
