Hippo Safaris

Part of the unassuming thrill of a safari is the possibility of coming close to danger and looking it in the eye. It is in the possibility of staring down at it, knowing full well that very little sits between you and possible chaos that kicks your adrenaline into overdrive and have you on the edge of your seats. 

As you may already know, the lion is often dubbed as the ‘King of the Jungle’. Funnily enough, though, you won’t actually find these magnificent creatures in any of the world’s jungles! However, they can be found across the great continent of Africa. 

Consisting of the African lion, African leopard, African elephant, the Cape buffalo, and the endangered black rhino, the Big Five are the ‘celebrities’ of the African bush. Out of these five species, the African Leopard is the most elusive and hardest to spot as it’s a master of camouflage and stealth.
