Time To Get Close To Elephant!!
  • Tip Rating:
  • After some instrucitons by CRAIG. It was time for our first stalking!! It was chilly in the morn and very windy. Just follow your leader. Listen to him. Very exciting!! Will have to be part of the MOCK-CHARGE T-L!

    PS, notice the BARE FEET on CRAIG! 100% of the time he was like this. Every so often he would stop and scrape his feet on a rock!
    Don't ask how he can do this out here!!

    Watch For The Charge!
  • Tip Rating:
  • On foot in ZIMBABWE! If your lucky enough to get close to this giants. If you have a good guide such as: Craig Van Zyl, you will have a great safari there! Yes we are on foot here. Yes he did 2 mock charges! I really should put a T-L for this guy!

    ELEPHANT PATH!
  • Tip Rating:
  • How lucky to be next to a PATH used by ELEPHANTS! They are going to the water hole. I would love to see this everyday in my
    front yard! There was this BIG BULL in the back ! HUGE! As they passed a tree, we took
    a sight mark. When they went by we went to the tree. Picked the spot, and could tell about
    how tall he was. More than 10feet at the
    shoulders! Time to go meet them at the water hole.

    Buffalo Gang!
  • Tip Rating:
  • The Golden grass of the dry season. Nice
    contrast for the BLACK BUFFALO! You can
    drive OFF-ROAD in ZIMBABWE. But you don't want to get too close to BUFFALO!
    They have very little food. It's HOT!
