Animals I've Seen in Ethiopia

Here is a list (in no particular order) of animals I've seen in Ethiopia:

vervet monkeys
Geldas (baboons?) (endemic)
hippos
oryx
klipspringers
Walia Ibex (endemic)
warthogs
jackal
dik diks
crocodiles
hamadryas baboons
birds
domestic animals (horses, cows, sheep, goats, donkeys, mules, cats,
dogs, cows, camels, etc)
a lion in a cage doesn't count (will have to wait for Tanzania)

Just finished a whirlwind trip through Northern Ethiopia, and we are
back in Addis for one night only. Got in a fight with a taxi driver
today, good to be back in Addis, seriously.

Tanzania tomorrow.

Gelada baboons (not really in the baboon family) were great and viewable by the hundreds!
