Diane,
Be immensel...Elephant Eye,<br />Bonsai leopards!<br /><br />Diane,<br />Be immensely thankful you've never encountered pepper ticks. They like to lurk in fairly moist bush - I've only ever met them around here and in the northern parks of KwaZulu Natal. They're said to be the ones that transmit (human) tick bite fever but I don't know if that's true. Certainly my new assistants inevitably contract it on their first day in the field!mainly mongoose (Lynda)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05917384766182752791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-767913719381352936.post-7807732875514767012011-04-13T15:27:10.390+02:002011-04-13T15:27:10.390+02:00What a privilege to see leopard at such close quar...What a privilege to see leopard at such close quarters. The best I have done is to see one stop in front of me on the road at night when driving from RSA to Zimbabwe and not far from the border. I have never heard of pepper ticks and from what you say I have no desire to meet one let alone over 400!!!

Hot and dry thru the summer, and the farmer's don't like sharing their livestock.Diana Studerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12286066768376135880noreply@blogger.com
