Well, this can't compare to alligators, but I did get chased by baboons
while photographing lachenalias at Cape Point. Even scarier is the fact
that the same area seems to be infested with zillions of ticks. I'm not
sure if they're from the baboons or the ostriches. These ticks crawl
several times faster than American ticks (deer or dog), so check your
trousers early and often.
Then there was the bull in the Drakensberg that decided he owned the
trail, and did not want me to take pictures of that cute little
ledebouria....
