Catch me if you can

My trips to South Africa have always focused around the " Big Five " but during my trip this time i was very lucky to stumble across the " little two " at a game reserve , not the most obvious of buddies to be playing a game of tag , but the antics of a domestic dog and that of a hand raised Rock Hyrax or dassie as they are more commonly known chasing each other in endless circles of fun enjoying a game of tag was a shot i was not going to miss out on and a great chance to see two species that would normally not mix too well enjoying their special playtime together happily as buddies
