The pesky, invasive nutria. They were brought to the area as a fur source, but that idea failed pretty badly.

Another species of mammal that is not native to the area in which it was photographed.

Cape Buffalo. These fellows always looked intimidating. Made me glad to be inside a vehicle and not afoot.

Yeah, but then again they are considered by hunters to be the most dangerous of the big 5. Imagine being in the midst of a herd of them. I have feared on occasion a stampede. But they are mostly gentle and leave you alone if you leave them alone. One occasion, I rev'd my engine among a herd, and a few lowered heads of buffalo quickly convinced me that was not the thing to do! Naught hey!

This cheetah is a captive, but still that face seems to be evaluating you for purposes you would not enjoy.

I think this is a Spotted Eagle, though I have listed it as a Tawny Eagle.

Good morning noelcmn. Some more pretty birdies.
