So, at Nxai Pans, it is all so great having a Jackal or a Hyena in camp in Bots Wilde camps but is extreme when a fully grown-up Elephant bull think it is time to come and visit you. Your heart starts to pound in your throat.
It is all ok if he just passes but when he decides to have a cat nap right next to your vehicle “the Beast” and the Beast was still a young overlander. I was relaying on my 26 years as a Game Ranger for what needs to be done safety is OAB first priority. But hi was only there to test my nerves.
I have to say his tusk was so close to that back door my heart almost stopped. And for me to say it was close it was close. We were so happy no, no I was so happy to see the big guy moving off Beast that was so close to close for comfort.
We at OAB invite you to join us on one or more Tours we offer.
