Well not exactly, but you get the idea. We have so many thoughts on Safari I’m not exactly sure where to start! This may end up being two or three blog posts…. I’ll start with the stuff you think you want to hear about, THE ANIMALS!
We were very lucky to see all of the big five. But more amazing to me was just seeing these wild animals in their natural habitat, their behaviors, the food chain
and how / which animals interact. We saw these amazing animals, playing, hunting, mating, eating, pooping, and sleeping.
In addition to the photos posted here, this link has more photos and videos- some great videos of lions and elephants playing, a cheetah chase, and some of the places we stayed.
SO… what animals did we see, here are a few lists we had fun with:
