Eland antelope and giraffe at Etosha National Park, Namibia
These eland antelope can’t help but look up to the sharp-eyed giraffe, who seems to be striking a managerial pose in honour of National Boss’s Day. An eland is a type of antelope that gathers in herds that can range from 50 to 500 or more, with separate social groups formed based on gender and age. Herds even form ‘nurseries’ for their young to gather, which sounds like a great perk for working parents. This group was photographed in Etosha National Park, a wildlife reserve in Namibia that’s named for the Etosha pan–an 1,800-square-foot dry lakebed that’s covered in salt. Feel free to impress your boss with that bit of trivia.
