Tiny Tommy!

    This pic is cool. I knew Thompson's gazelles were small, but I never realized quite how small! It's neat seeing them in perspective like this.

    Ali says: "I think that hartebeest must be on a bit of a rise from the tommy because tommies are not quite that small...."

    That makes sense, it does look like the tommy's cut off at about the knees and the grass isn't that long. Still, I remember as a kid I always thought gazelles were horse/deer sized because they look like deer, I was surprised when I found out they were so small.
