Just driving through saw zebras giraffes baboons wildebeast warthogs elephants impala vultures cape-buffalo wierd-ducks white-people (lion-bait)

Here are pictures taken with a camera phone where at 50 yards things are tiny dots. Most of these animals were within ten yards. Does anyone remember the names of the warthogs in the "Lion King"?
