Thanks, Fabby. I've never even heard of the animals on the list, other than a rhino beetle, which I've seen in the zoo. I guess Nick was wrong about the chameleon being on the small 5 list. __________________

Nick mentioned the "small 5" while showing us a chameleon on one of the three game drives I have witnessed. I'd never heard of them. Buffalo weaver Ant lion Leopard tortoise Rhino beetle Elephant shrew Not the chameleon. I don't know why Nick talked about the Little 5 while showing the chameleon.

I just googled duikers. Did you know that they eat, in addition to what one would suspect, i.e., fallen fruit and leaves, lizards, and other small animals? Maybe like ourselves, a few hundred millena ago, they are increasing the protien in their diet, which will make them smarter. Duikers, a rival dominant species? :) __________________

good one Aquila, I forgot the cape buffalo. They wouldn't back down would they. I've seen them (on TV of course) deliberately seek out and kill lion cubs hiding in the tall grasses while the pride was away hunting. Oil & water! I've seen that too. Eventually it turned out only one out of eleven cubs was killed, but I watched it praying for the little cubs and heart racing. It was terrible to watch :( But that's nature for ya. Magical one moment, evil the next. __________________
