We saw some incredible sights that are still imprinted on my memory.
A lioness taking the first bites out of her kill on the side of the road. The following morning, only the clean carcas was left. A lone hyena was leisurley munching on it, surrounded by vultures waiting for their share.
A hippo lumbering through the grass.
Thousands of migrating wilderbeast and zebras crossing a stream and clambering up the other side.
A lazy lion asleep under a tree after eating his dinner.
A lioness we spotted about 100m away. We watched in disbelief as she slowly ambled towards us and eventually crossed over the road in front of the truck.
We also saw: giraffes, warthogs, buffalos, hundreds of gazellas and impala, jackels, elephants, an eagle owl, rock hyrax, a mongoose, a crocodile, ostriches, guinea fowl, a secretary bird. And many others.
