Combing the cheetah enclosure



Just as soon as we were back from the sunrise, and it was still very early, we were back out again driving again to the cheetah enclosure. We were here last night for the sunset. But this time we had returned to clean the enclosure, which took the form of us all standing across in one long line and then walking forwards combing the ground for poo. Unlike our previous camp where we sat with our backs to the cheetahs and drank beer, here we get a serious lecture beforehand with strict instructions on how to protect ourselves, even armed with long sticks.



It was a huge enclosure and the far side was on the other side of a hill cum sand dune, so it wasn't a quick job. Two of us held buckets that the rest filled with dried poo, which might be in a bush or, if you're lucky, somewhere easier to reach. It was a little tedious but more than compensated for with another series of spectacular views.
