Video: Blue Wildebeest herd at water hole

This video is of a Blue Wildebeest herd coming in to drink at the Polentswa waterhole, north of Nossob in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. Although they initially file in quite calmly (often in single file), as soon as they get close to the waterhole, they begin to “misbehave” – just like a bunch of restless school boys. You’ll see them pushing against each other, and even standing in the water which everyone else is supposed to drink out of.

Turn up the sound on this one to hear the sounds of the Kalahari bush and the Wildebeest.
