Chillin' like a Squirrel - The Coolest Way to Beat the Heat in Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this adorable snapshot captured by Alan Weaving, we witness nature's ingenious temperature control system at work. Meet ASW-4374, the ground squirrel who knows how to keep cool in scorching African summers. As the mercury rises and the sun beats down on the vast savannah of Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, our furry friend has found a clever way to offload body heat. With its belly pressed against the refreshing cool sand and seeking refuge under a shady spot, this little rodent has mastered the art of relaxation. While other animals might pant or seek shelter elsewhere, our resourceful ground squirrel takes advantage of Mother Nature's offerings. By lying flat on its back with paws stretched out wide, it maximizes contact with the chilled grains beneath it—creating an instant air-conditioned effect! With grasslands stretching as far as the eye can see and national parks teeming with wildlife wonders, South Africa never ceases to amaze. And amidst all that natural beauty lies this single photograph that encapsulates both serenity and survival instincts. So next time you're feeling hot under the collar during summer days, take inspiration from ASW-4374! Find your own "cool sand" moment and embrace creative ways to beat those soaring temperatures. After all, if a tiny ground squirrel can master temperature control while looking effortlessly cute doing so
