We had just left camp early one morning in the Masai Mara when we spotted this black-backed jackal with a little breakfast. That’s a gazelle leg the jackal has in its mouth. And that’s the great thing about being on safari in Africa — you never know what you’re going to get. One day it’s a pride of lions with cubs and the next it’s a jackal with a gazelle drumstick.

Beautiful morning light. Nice grab Sean.
He looks like he’s wearing a cape or shawl, the way the black fur is layered on his back.
I can see the hoof – ugh!
