Afrique 6 – OUTSHOORN

 On the next morning we go by minibus to visit Kango cave. It is a very big cave with 2 large and high halls, and a 2.5 km walk. There are a lot of big stalagtics and stalagmits. We have to go crawling through 3 very narrow corridors, and climb by a chimney. In the afternoon it rains again and we just relax and visit the town, which has just 2 streets with the classical useful or touristic stuff shops.

Because of the rain, it is snowing in the mountains, and the peaks are white. We were wondering to climb the scenic Swaberg pass and make the Russ detour, but it i closed by the snow. So we forget it and would follow way to Ado park and Graf reinet.

Outside of Outshoorn are a lot of ostruch farms, and also wild animals farms.

Well as all the wild animals were over hunted in Africa, by game, and also because they destroyed the farms, and also because as the white had robbed all the farms and lands of the native people,  these have to over hunt to survive, as they dont have anymore enought land to cultivate and have cows. So the wild animals nearly desapear. And they survive because a few people understood the business a country could do with Reserves and National or Private parks. So they start to find wild animals in very remote places, in the jungle, bring them in parks, and farm them. Noone would anymore see wild animals in Africa, apart in the very dense jungle, or a few ostruch and gazelles.

And in the Parks they bring food and water, it isent real nature.
