Dendrohyrax arboreus
Small African mammal.
Was perched up in a tree in one of the hotels just outside the Mara.
I thought this made for an interesting Africa sighting because its not big game.
I don't believe these are in the same classification as rodents. They are actually more closely related to Elephants than they are rats, mice, rabbit, or other rodent species. :-) just a little information to pass along.
Great spotting nonetheless, they are quite the interesting little animals.
