These are photos that I took at Harnas. It is a wildlife rehabilitation sanctuary near Gobabis, Namibia. My class was taking a field trip there. We stayed overnight in tents. We used the money from our "Make it Sell" unit to pay for the Harnas trip, so the games that I made helped pay for the trip.
This photo is the lapa, which is the place where you can buy drinks and food.
These are mongoose that live near the lapa. People call them out and feed them pieces of meat and they all charge over there in a huge group. These are taking a drink from the pool that was there.
When we walked to the campsite we were greeted by a giraffe that sniffed my mom's hand. We got really close to it and petted its head.
My friend Abvi's birthday was the day that I got there. We had cake and celebrated.
These are bat-eared foxes that we looked at and we got to pet one. It was really soft. They live in burrows and they had started to collapse the building near where they had their burrows because of all the tunnels they had dug under the house.
This is a spider monkey. They had one loose near the lapa. It climbed up on me and stole my glasses. I got them back because it dropped them.
These are two small baboons that were in a cage together. We saw them groom each other and look for ticks that they ate.
This is one of the 4 brother lion cubs that are almost grown up. They were feeding them when we were there. A dog took in the 4 brothers and raised them as her own.
So, this was my trip to Harnas. I liked it a lot and I hope we can go back.
