Even got to see an Ethiopian wolf! There are only a few hundred in the country – here and in the Simien Mountains.

This little guy was so curious about me he waited patiently while I changed the lens on my camera to get a picture of him.  He is a Rock Hyrax,  the closest relative of the elephant.  Really!DSC03435
