We had a visit from the owners Ton and Yvonne Jansen. It was nice having them here  but the best part was when they said they are going to buy us nyala’s to stay around Kololo. I was very excited about this new developement.

At Kololo we prepared for them a big boma so that they can get used to the enviroment and settle in here on Kololo. The next morning we left very early to go and collect them. So we lured  them up onto the truck and headed back for their new home, kololo. It all went good, and after a few minutes they where in their new boma

It was my job to feed them and look if they have enough water, soon they started eating out of my hand. After 3 weeks in the boma it was time for them to be free, we opened the gates and off they went. We did go and try to find them, but they where deep in the African bush.

To my surprise one morning as I was walking past their boma I spotted our four Nyalas out the corner of my eye, they where back. The Nyalas are now walking freely around the chalets and eating apples out of my hand every afternoon. They have found their new home between the chalets, they are not always here but we see them more and more. So next time you come to visit kololo you might just see them.
