Some that are not birds this time.

This is a Dassie. About the size of a small cat. They are very common on Table Mountain and scamper about on the rocks often right on the edge of a sheer drop.

These are Hartmann's Zebras. Note the stripes go all the way down the legs.

These are Burchill's Zebras. No stripes on legs and a slightly different stripe pattern.
