My parents arrived home safe and sound last night! 8DDD
All right, to make the long story short-
My parents flew to Atlanta, then Germany, then finally to Nambia in Africa.
They stayed at a nice ranch owned by the guide by the name Uwe
My parents had heck of a time there! Hunting for some animals and avoiding Black Mamba (For whoever don't know what that is, it's one of the most deadly snakes on earth!) and Leopards!
My dad shot 4 different animals!
Warning! The some of the following pictures contains dead animals!

The first animal my dad killed, an Oryx! AKA Gembok, and according to Uwe, this is an record animal on that ranch!
Just look at the size of the horns! 8O

This would be a Hartebeast, and it's another record animal at that ranch! Ain't it a beauty?!

My reaction to this pic-
8O
8OO
8OOO
"Wow.... WOW!! Look at the size of that thing!!!!"
It's not the biggest Kudu around, but it sure is a fine one!
My dad also shot a zebra but it was moving so my dad made a bad shot and it ran off, wounded. So my dad, Uwe and the trackers went to search for it, and they've been at it for a couple of days... they haven't found it yet...

Uwe will keep on searching until he finds this zebra and send its hide along with the head/antlers of the other animals my dad got.
my mom got a lot of pictures but I wouldn't show em' all because I don't wanna bore ya guys...

There were a lot, I meant, A LOT of warthogs all over the place!
They're like priarie dogs, they're everywhere!!!
My parents told Uwe and his wife how that if I came down to Nambia, I would for sure want to kill me one of those warthogs! XD

Don't they look pretty?! If Uwe does find my dad's zebra, he'll send us the skin and we may turn it into a rug!
