Reserve de Bandia

To finish our vacation we took a trip to the Reserve de Bandia, which is about an hour and half away from Dakar. The place was very touristy, with a fancy restaurant and everything, but that's what I expected anyways. The restaurant had monkey's everywhere just chilling on the table. At one point some of the monkey's got in a huge fight/wrestling match with each other which was interesting to watch. 


This little wise guy was watching us from behind looking all innocent when suddenly he jumped to our table, stole my friend's pizza, and ran away.


The evidence:


Afterwards he went to chill nonchalantly next to the sign that says "Please do not feed the monkeys"


Some more animals we saw on our safari ride:

Ostrich

This is called an antelope du cheval (horse antelope)

 Some giraffes and baby giraffes!



 And a rhino! Which I was really excited to see because they are endangered and it is really rare to see one.

 This is a special baobab tree that I think some celebrity is buried under, I can't remember who.
