The Big Five

This is the design on the back of our bus, which is sometimes used for safaris when it is not doing mission work. Can you identify all of the "big five" - rhino, elephant, leopard, lion and buffalo (in no particular order!)?
Over the past three years, I have seen all of them in Uganda though the rhinos were all exterminated in Idi Amin's day, so now the only ones to be seen are the eight or so in the Ziwa Rhino sanctuary which were brought in from Kenya and South Africa to be nurtured here. They have bred 3 rhino babies since it started and will run a 15-20 year programme before releasing them in Murchison National Park in the hopes that once again Uganda can be home to the wonderful and fearful rhinoceros.
