Take a close look at this tree and if you can tell me where to find it , plus what is unusual about it then you can consider yourself very knowledgeable about the Kruger .

If you are battling , I will post some more closer shots later .

Battling?? You really think so?

How bout posting any shot sommer now?

Ok , maybe it is a little hard , there after all quite a few trees in Kruger .
This is an advanced level quiz though .

Ok , I see this is a monday and I did not post a pic - eeeshh .

It's the vary rare Youdontseemeatall tree.
What is unusual about it that photos taken of it just disappear, which is why the tree is never talked about.

I swear the quiz was easier before the pic went up!

The now you see me now you don't tree - pops up anywhere?

Sorry couldn't resit.

this is a pear - shaped tree along with the pear shaped thread....

lmao@DB!!

Come people , this is easy peasy for a botanist (I may even be wrong in my I.D. the way things are going int his thread )

It can be seen from the main tar road running along the length of the park , so that narrows it down a bit .

Not too clear from the pic but it looks to me like a shepherd's tree or witgat Boscia albitrunca. I don't know where it is or what is unusual about it though. Is this specific tree unusual?

On the S40 travelling from Nsemani towards Girivana.
What is unusaul about it? The last known nesting place of the Tree Zebra (Equus quagga busherii)

Very close to that area Francois , but from a tar road .

Nope Senyetse , not a shepards tree .

Heres another pic .

Looks like a tree being gobbled up by another. Its actually two trees?

Now we are getting somewhere , spot on Senyetse , although not quite gobbled .

Close to Orpen I think, Looks like some form of fig tree.
