It’s been a few weeks since we got into the field at Mushara and the eles

are coming in at the run, thirsty and ornery. 2015 has been a bad drought

year for Etosha, but it has affected the eles differently than in the past.

So far we have seen the Actors, the Athletes and the Goddesses, but they are

coming in separately and the usual drama and conflict at the water hole is

absent. Today we saw Liza for the first time with her mom, Wynona (picture)

and her aunt, Erin and her brother and cuz. They have formed a small

fragment of the Actors herd that seems to have been pushed out of the Actors

for good. Liza is about three now. She looks tough and confident and does

not let her older cousin push her around.
