Wow naomi c, just found your pics of this magnificent creature. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Doesn't she look like she's walking in high heels!!! :D

We saw one, a large male, last year on a sunset drive out of Crocodile Bridge. It had been caught in a snare on farmland, and fortunately a vet had found it, treated it and the senior ranger was releasing it. You may have seen the pics of the aardvark with a bandage on its nose. What a once in a lifetime sighting that one was. We never did find out if it survived, though.
