The Olifants River in Kruger NP is quite wide and the bridge across long enough so that one is allowed to get out of your car between two demarcated points. As the bridge is quite high over the river, it is also used by the denizens of the park as a cross-over. (Chacma) Baboons are always crossing mornings and late afternoons. There is a Armco barrier railing on each side of the bridge. (This is a w-shaped steel barrier system widely used in SA in road construction to prevent vehicles from accidentally driving off elevated road profiles.)
There is hardly any space between the edge of the barrier and the drop-off down to the river, but the bobbies use it with not problem - they do however, keep and eye on the people using the bridge.
The light was so beautiful and this youngster such a cool cat, I just had to shoot him as he was carried pass us on his mom's back. The lines on top and below are the edges of the Armco barrier and the back is the actual river. If we have a river with running water in SA, is is mostly just a small, shallow stream meandering across the river bed.
