We have seen lots of wild life and livestock since arriving in Swaziland.  On a daily basis we see cows, donkeys, dogs, goats and a variety of birds.  On rare occasions we see some more unique animals.  We have visited two of the game reserves since arriving and have seen a variety of African animals.  Here are some of the animal we have seen so far.<\/p>\n
