Highly commended – Jackals Fighting –
This photo was taken about 2km south of the Kji Kji waterhole in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, at around nine in the morning. We came across a group of lions that had killed a gemsbok during the night. Also present when we arrived at the killing was about 15 black-backed jackals lying in wait for the lions to leave so that they could have a bite. This is what happened when the lions left the kill. The jackals were trying to establish dominance around the kill.
