It was a weekend of braaing for many and Smile Breakfast heard several stories from you about animals literally robbing you of your precious braai meat and salads. From baboons running away with your entire braai grid at Cape Point to a troupe of them in Tokai Forest picking up a salad bowl and running off. And there was a Great Dane that took a whole turkey OUT of the Weber.

It would seem that Mother Nature has a way of surprising us around a braai more often than not. Who thought donkeys enjoy boerewors?

Birds also seem to provide some bizarre experiences.

Ever had a friendly encounter with a hyena?

Or can you say you’re brave enough to slap a cobra?

Well apparently these moms are just as brave!
