The Camp attendant said that it took the pride of around 10 mature lions several horribe hours to take the poor creature down . But the experience was incredible.

Back your report, i am eager to hear about savuti !

Thank you for reading Anne, glad you enjoyed it. I know that the lions in Savuti and Chobe are among the few (I hesitate to use the qualifier of “only”) that can take down an elephant, but I was under the impression that they didn’t go after mature animals, that is remarkable! It must be something to see, but yes, appalling at the same time. Pt 2 coming soon!

Your photos take me right back to beloved Moremi where we will hopefully spend some time at the beginning of next year. By the way, while it is unusual that a full-grown elephant is killed by a pride of lions it does happen. Luckily we did not have to witness such a battle first hand but we saw a pride of lions on a dead elephant in November 2019 very close to Tshaa campsite. It had been killed only hours ago by the same pride of lions.
I am eagerly waiting for part 2 of your Botswana adventure.

A trip to Botswana got us hooked on this kind of traveling, but this was almost 10 years ago, and we have never returned since! Your vivid description of Moremi made me seriously think about starting to plan a trip to Botswana.

Stan would love to read this and the future installments of your excellent blog.

We had similar experiences to you in Moremi and Chobe. Excellent gesture to dedicate this to Stan, he will be sorely missed, if it weren’t for Stan and his encouragement we would not be travelling to East Africa, he challenged us to move out of our Southern African comfort zone. Your own blog provides excellent references that we will certainly be using. Cheers John and Linda (Tedx2)

Like you we were inspired by Stan’s travel blog. He and his sage advise re travel and medical aspects will be missed. Your blog posts have also inspired us and are always a delight to read.
Cheers
