Quick facts about wildebeest-gnus

Wildebeests are known to be great migrators and always gather in large herds while preparing for long journeys.

Females often give birth during the rainy season with a gestation period of 8-8.5 months and the most witnessed one is the Ndutu conservation area that gathers thousands of these animals in the months of late January to march when they are so active in production. This is a place where all photographers wish to be, it collects all kinds of cats like leopards, lions, cheetahs, hyenas, and many others.

These awkward-looking creatures have a heavily built front end, a large box-like with curving horns, and slender hindquarters with spindly legs. They have an attractive gray coat and black mane as well as a white or black beard and luxuriant tail.

Wildebeests are social animals and always mixing up with zebras, topis, kobs, and many others, these are known to be so fast able to drift at 64km/hr, they are good at dodging predators however they are always among the targeted dish for these no mercy animals.

By the age of 4-5, single herd males become quite territorial and leave the herd to form their own, Females establish tiny, overlapping herds, and as groups approach, cows shift to a different herd. These stay with calves till the next baby is born.

When bulls meet at the edge of their territory, they frequently challenge each other by bucking, snorting, scratching the ground, fighting, and growling in low tones. They crouch with their foreheads on the ground, prepare to battle, and step forward to hit each other, banging their heads and horns but rarely injuring each other. There is a suggestion that these duels enhance hormone levels in bulls because bachelor groups are more laid back.

Their habitat is threatened by agricultural activity and fragmentation, and even though a considerable number of wildebeests have died during the Great Migration, the International Union for Conservation of Nature does not rank wildebeests as endangered.

Where to see wildebeests

Kenya and Tanzania are well known because of their wonder migration; however, they are also most spread in the south of Africa.

Why are female spotted hyenas masculine, dominant and aggressive?

With a gestation period of about 4 months, dominant females are known to provide more androgen hormones to their offspring in the older stages of pregnancy, unlike the lower-ranking females.

It is this androgen that makes the babies of dominant females more aggressive and musculinised than their colleagues. For this reason, they rank higher than some older females and stand a chance of taking over as leaders if they can win several allies.

Giving birth in hyenas

Giving birth in female spotted hyenas is as hard as conceiving since newborns have to use the narrow clitoris tube to find their way out in the entire carnivore family, spotted hyena cubs are a match like no other in size ratio to their mother’s weight.

With all the force used throughout the birth process, the clitoris raptures and is known to take a few weeks before it heals.

Everything looks against their odds of survival but regardless they move. And nature seems to keep pushing for reduced hyena levels.

HOW ARE HYENAS IMPORTANT IN WILDLIFE?

Rarely known is the fact that hyenas are hygiene enforcers in nature. Poor hygiene in your dining, kitchen, or even living room can bring about serious diseases that can lead to death.
The same is true in the wilderness; an anthrax infected carcass if not removed can spread and kill thousands of wildlife species ranging from insects to even the big animals.
With this continuously happening, our national parks would be inaccessible due to the stanching smell of dead carcasses all over. Nevertheless, wildlife numbers would significantly drop.
We are blessed to have these serious mess cleaners as they will ingest and digest any part of a dead animal, be it sick or not thanks to their stomach acidic PH.
At less than 2 and only beaten by vultures in strength, the spotted hyena acidic PH allows it to breakdown every animal part while its short digestive tract provides less room for micro organs to roam in its body.
Spotted hyenas alongside vultures are natures hygiene specialists in a world of predation.

Raising awareness about hyenas

Providing relevant information and raising awareness means the spotted hyena misconceptions are cleared, leaving them to roam freely on their savannah territories and give nature a chance to dictate.

The gerenuk males defend their territories by scent marking with their special secretions from the preorbital glands. As they age, the gerenuk is less mobile, and eating from closer rangers is always the best choice. With about 25-44 cm of horn length,3-6km2 of home range, and 2m of feeding height these are ideal to spot.

The African Giants

World’s largest land mammal, a sight to behold on Africa’s sprawling Savannah. Regarded to be among the most intelligent animals and always entertaining for all the safari-goers.
Weighing over 6 tons(6000kg) and measuring up to 11 feet shoulder height, the African elephant is second to none on land and is the world’s largest land mammal. In order to sustain its enormous size, the African elephant can consume up to 300 kg of vegetation in a single day which can stretch up to 18 hours of foraging, over almost 20km of distance.

Quick facts

• Weight of brain: 5kgs+
• Adult weight: 2500kg-6500kg
• IUCN status: vulnerable
• Scientific name: Loxodonta africana
• Elephants have large brains | The brain of an elephant is approximately 4 to 5 kg which is 4 times the size of a human brain. The elephant brain has a bigger and denser temporal lobe which supports their incredible memory. It is from here that a saying was developed that Elephants don’t forget as they can recognize old faces, old tracks, and old landscapes.
• Major threats to elephants in Africa: what are the major threats to Elephants? | Poaching and ivory trade remain the biggest threat. • Human-elephant conflict. • Habitat loss.

Female elephants live in closely knit clans in which the eldest female matriarch takes over the leading role over her sisters, daughters, and granddaughters. 

Elephants are a positive to the ecosystem due to their large sums of feeds, they move around breaking down trees and eating bushes and shrubs which control most areas from turning into intact forests.

These giants siphon 30-50 gallons per day using their trunk, the truck is by far the most useful feature for digging, signaling, gathering food, and as well spray water all over their bodies.

Bush elephants are sociable, affectionate, and good at caressing companions, they will take care of the weaker individuals and are good at adopting the orphans

The elephant feet.

Their feet are spongy pads each with four or five toes, toenails and this helps elephants absorb the pressure from the ground due to their heavy weights.

MYTHS ABOUT ELEPHANTS

  • Elephants love peanuts, a theory developed in the 19th century when people paid to feed elephants sacs of peanuts in circuses and zoos.

  • The gestation period of elephants

    Elephants have a 22-month gestation period and on giving birth, a baby elephant can stand in a minute while it can later swim in a few hours. This can be attributed to the vulnerability to predators of these babies and so they have little time to waste learning these life-saving tactics.

    ·       Short thick curved tusks	·       Long thin tusks pointing downwards
    ·       Africa shaped ears	·       Round shaped ears.
    ·       Brown-grayish in color	·       Darker in color

    Uses of elephant trunks

    The elephant trunks are multipurpose tools with over 40000 to 150000 muscles; they can perform an unimaginable number of responsibilities for the elephant, and other wildlife in a mutual relationship.

    They use their trunks for several purposes

    • Rubbing and a touch for a greeting or assurance
    • Spraying cool water over their hot bodies
    • Used to play games with each other
    • To bring down a tree branch with fresh juicy leaves
    • To move bushes out of its way
    • Digging holes in river beds to allow water to flow from the ground.
      

      How do elephants communicate?

      Elephants communicate through vibrations (small earthquakes) and are known to have a unique and complex communication system.

      Elephants trample onto the ground to generate impulses that travel several miles and these vibrations are taken up and interpreted by the recipient through their bones.

      Elephants also communicate through touch, taste, and smell while they are observed excitedly greeting each other even after many years of no contact

Roles of elephants in the ecosystem

Elephants are the landscape designers.

With their herbivorous feeding, elephants have been described as landscape architects as they shape trees by bringing down the oversized branches, and clear tracks in the dense forests.
Elephants are heavy feeders
Elephants can forage vegetation up to 300 kg in a single day, however, a big portion of this is passed out undigested this is the reason several species will be waiting for an elephant to excrete through the back door.
Elephants are expert dispersers.
From the undigested fruits to plant stems, elephants ensure plants and tree species migrate to other territories
Elephants provide food to other species.
Birds and baboons pick fruits and seeds from elephant dung, while plants also get their seeds dispersed to different areas and hence increase their chances of survival.
Any undigested plant stem can have another chance at life considering the fertile and nutritious environment the elephant dung provides
Elephants are manure manufacturers
With much of their intake excreted undigested, elephants supply a great amount of manure, especially to the savannah undergrowth like grass, small plants, shrubs, and even trees.

Where to see elephants in Africa

Where are African elephants found?
Elephants can be found in the tropical and subtropical regions of Africa and Asia while African elephants are in the savannahs, grasslands, highlands, swamps, and even deserts of Africa.
Uganda, Tanzania, Botswana, Namibia, Kenya, Zambia, and South Africa are some of the 23 countries that harbor these mammal giants.

Tips for viewing Bush elephants

• These are big animals that don’t require over-straining your eyes, however, while viewing one must be keen on behaviors. Agitation of individuals and herds with calves must be given enough space. Bulls must as well be given enough space because sometimes are agitated by Musth.
• You’re always advised to use a safari jeep while on a safari, or walk around with a ranger for keen spots.
