Safari Safety Measures
When on safari the saying better to be safe than sorry makes sense more than ever. Some time back some tourists visiting Kenya decided to go for an early morning jog at a game lodge. They had sought the opinion of those around and were told the animals were far away. This might have been the usual scene however on that day an elephant had strayed and was very near the lodge and they encountered the elephant face to face. It is very difficult to out run a wild animal.

Tip 
All wild animals are dangerous and when threatened will attack.. Hence ensure to keep a safe distance. Do not provoke them with sounds in an effort to capture that elusive picture. The rhino can cause serious damage if mauled by it.
