The post-election violence in Kenya has decimated the tourism industry. As a result, The Mara Conservancy has taken to soliciting donations in order to pay their rangers. (I know there is much to be concerned about in Kenya, but this is among the worthy causes to consider supporting.) These folks are very smart, and very wired. They're on Flickr, on Facebook, on Vimeo, and on Twitter. Check them out, follow them, and consider helping them in their work to protect these incredible animals.
Check out this video of the start of an amazing annual event, and some obviously well fed crocodiles...

does anyone know why the crocodiles didn't eat the zebras?
I was sitting here cringing the whole time. (in a completely masculine kind of way, you understand)

I think they're full.
(Did you see the wildebeest that basically jumped over the croc?!)

full of previous zebras?
It was really odd to see zebras so comfortable around those predators.
