There are several species of zebra in Africa, all of which inhabit open and wooded grasslands. These common animals are single-stomached (non-ruminants), which allows them to consume rough, dry grasses. These grasses, often passed over by other grazers, allow the zebra to endure during times when their counterparts struggle for survival. However, like the elephant, they need to drink water on a daily basis, and hence, they are rarely far from a water source.
Breeding rituals are connected to the rains. Male zebras sexually mature at age 1 or 2, but do not reach social maturity—the capacity to seize or guard a female herd or territory—until 6 years old. Courtship and breeding last two days, with mating repeated every one to two hours. Once a female becomes pregnant, the gestation period lasts 13 months.

The Yellow-billed, also known as the Wood Stork or Wood Ibis, is an elegant wading bird found in the wetlands and savannas of sub-Saharan Africa. With its distinctive long, yellow bill, which is slightly down-curved at the tip, and its striking white plumage with pink-tinged edges during the breeding season, this stork is a visually striking presence in its natural habitat.

Not the Tembe Cam. I thought this pic deserved to be here
