I love Impala, when I see them I know that I am truly in the Kruger. We always say that they are the MacDonalds of the Kruger because you can find them almost everywhere and they are on a lot of animals menus

You will be amazed if you read through the trip reports Leo21! Almost everybody loves Impalas! The fact that there are so many of them, doesn't matter. They are beautiful! :dance:

I agree with you leo21. It is normally the first mammal that one see and someone once said that they are the welcome committees of Kruger. If I see the Impalas, then I know that I am back where I belong.

Impala are beautiful animals, one of the reasons why I love going to the KNP in December seeing the results of what I was listening to during my May, June visits.

Makes me very happy to see that others also enjoy them.
