Flamingos

Flamingos bathe in the waters of a lake underneath a sand dune. A stark contrast between the dry desert and the wildlife that seems to always find a way to survive.
Gelada

Geladas are a kind of monkey, related to baboons, that can be found in large family groups grazing mountain-side grass.
Flooding

The rains bring problems for the wildlife and human population alike, such as how to get around?
Meerkats

Everyone's favourite small mammal, meerkats probably strike a chord with most people due to their almost human-like expressions.
Impala

Impala may be the go-to prey for most African savannah predators, but these antelope do not give up easily - they are tremendous athletes.
African Penguin

A penguin in Africa? African penguins, also called jackass penguins, can be found on the coast around the southern tip of Africa.
Mountain Gorillas

Dangerously close to the brink of extinction, poaching and habitat loss means that this great ape has an uncertain future ahead.
Zebra
