Odd jobs

Back at the camp we've got a load of smaller jobs to do so work our way through them. First we help with some camera trap sorting. We gather round the big tv screen with the laptop plugged in. Trap photos are more lively here than our last camp. There's a huge range of animals continously in shot: zebra, baboons, birds, jackal. And we're not plagued with the long grass that previously would trigger the cameras and fill them with shots without any animals.

We move on to some more wire braiding and finish off the last of the strands in preparation for using these to build new fencing. We finish with some egg shell crushing. This is used to add calcium to the cheetah feed. We take a bag of egg shells and just hit them with any large stone we can find. All the while Bella joins our company and pleads for a tug-of-war on her toy. A game you indulge in purely at your own risk. She'd tear and pull your arm from its socket if you didn't eventually give in. Our final job is feeding the horses, which involves someone pulling two types of hay from a large sack into new sacks we must then mix by shaking and then feeding to each horse.
