Ostrich fighting
Doing some work archiving photos, amazing what you find! These two male ostrich in Tarangire were going at each other hammer and tongs. They looked really ridiculous, much like you would expect two extremely drunk brawlers to look, however the damage they inflicted on each other was impressive. The male on the right emerged the victor, but went off with a gaping hole in his belly. The things men do for girls.....!

Thanks Paolo,
Personally never witnessed Ostrich fighting before so was very interesting; you could hear the thumping as they kicked each other long before we saw them!
ah ah, these two look so ridiculous. I hope that one day i will witness such a scene... camera in hand off course!
