August 2011 – Mike Dunne
School Holiday Trip…
The first term has ended, and we had the opportunity to travel to Otjiwarongo. This brought a visit to the Cheetah Fund to see first hand the work going on to help the local farmers live with the local Cheetah’s. Very interesting and informative. They train a very large sheep dog, a xxxxxxx, which works with the local ranchers to keep their animals safe from the predators. In doing so, it saves this endangered and much misunderstood animal. We also got to travel to Etosha, taking Auntie Likki and the kids on an eleven hour day trip.. That was fun. We also got to go to the Crocadile ranch and see a sight which would be somewhat familiar to folks in Florida…
