   A terrific series and a great reminder that daily life in the natural world is not always an easy or gentle time.

    Do they hurt each other?

    1. de Wets Wild Post authorNovember 16, 2015 at 4:42 am

       They do Lois! Biting and kicking; we saw several tufts of hair flying and the thud of hooves against flesh made us cringe a couple of times…

       Thanks Ineke! The fighting did stop, but we don’t know which one won – perhaps the second round started after we left the scene.
