Africa Wild

Or the SA Hedgehog





They have been recorded in the South of the Park and Dr De Vos actually raised a little family in Kruger!

More the Pretoriuskop region, and more common in slightly higher areas of the Lowveld.

This one is really impossible, don't know of many pics, never mind any Kruger pics, but it has been found there.


Meller's Mongoose

Rarest Kruger mongoose: Selous




Seen occasionally in the far north.

Ok, article fixed with springhare! They used Dindingwe's pic!

I did not know it was so rare in the Kruger. I saw one only once in that park, but I have to admit I don't go often on night drives. I saw some at Mapungubwe and in Zimbabwe.
But the other pictures were obviously not taken in the Kruger. The Aardwolf seems to have been shot in Etosha.

Yes, Dingwe, it is rare in Kruger, or at least not seen often, being nocturnal. Only seen them once myself, I think, on a Shingwedzi night drive.

Well done Dindingwe.

Of course there are also two animals that occur in Kruger, or have over the years, without photographic evidence to speak of.

Suni antelope are found in the far north, but often Sharpe's Grysbok are assumed to be them:

And then the Brown Hyena, which has declined as other predators increased, I think, and is now only a possible vagrant from "safer" areas outside?

The hedgehog is the kind that we have in Europe, lots
