Hilltop Prey


Hilltop Prey
by
Rob Millenaar.

Like anywhere else on the planet, life in the desert feeds the stronger creature. A cat-sized rodent, locally known as a Rock Dassie, found its end on a Karoo hilltop as a bird of prey, possibly a 'Witkruis' picked it up and devoured it here. Only the skull remained. Did it take the rest to its nest to feed offspring?
