the cud by day and moving out onto the plains in the late afternoon. To do
so entails making river crossings in tight formation.

home. Foraging parties will seek out small rodents, insects and snakes to
feed upon.

stunning landscapes.

afternoon. Golden hour allows for some beautiful light scenarios and great
