How do you do?

How do you do? This evening whilst driving on the marsh we were lucky enough to encounter a young lioness with 2 cubs playing through the open grasslands. Eventually their late afternoon activities caught the attention of a number of giraffe nearby. Imagine our surprise and delight when a giraffe bull approached the lioness and cubs and appeared to actually almost bend down and greet them. Once the 'so-called' formalities were out of the way we were further amazed to watch the lioness, cubs and giraffe slowly chase each other across the grassland in turn for a further 20 minutes or so!
