You can imagine how President travells if this is the governor. In South #Sudan, #Africa’s poorest and conflict-ridden country, governor of Jonglei State moves in convoy of countless expensive SUVs. Despite oil wealth, basic services are inexistent. The country imports everything including items like soap. Millions of refugees outside, especially in Kakuma #Kenya.

Night patrol at the river's edge. 🌙🐾 Spotted hyenas are highly intelligent, highly adaptable apex predators and scavengers that do most of their active hunting and patrolling under the cover of night. Catching this individual pausing along the illuminated waterbank gives a fantastic look at their distinct sloping silhouette and keen attentiveness. #WildlifePhotography #Kenya #Hyena #AnimalBehavior #NocturnalWildlife #NightDrive #Safari #Fediverse #Wildlife #Ecology #Nikon #photography

The ultimate shadow of the savanna. 🖤🐾 An incredible encounter with a melanistic (black) serval crouching quietly in the dry grass during a night drive. Spotting a wild cat like this in the dark is special enough, but seeing a rare melanistic individual is an unforgettable highlight. #WildlifePhotography #Kenya #MelanisticServal #Serval #WildCats #NightDrive #NocturnalWildlife #AnimalsOfPixelfed #NatureInFocus #RareSight #Nikon #Photography #PixelFed

Southern Patas Monkey Erythrocebus baumstarki Palm Oil Detectives

The Southern Patas #Monkey (Erythrocebus baumstarki) is an elusive, long-limbed #primate once common across northern #Tanzania and parts of #Kenya and now on the very edge of #extinction. With a lean, agile body built for speed, they are among the fastest-running primates in the world, capable of reaching speeds up to 55 km/h. Once ranging over approximately 66,000 km², their habitat has been decimated by agriculture, human settlements, and bushmeat hunting, reducing their known range by over 85
