And, once you've found them, go looking for Africa's other famous five, the Little Five (elephant shrew, rhino beetle, leopard tortoise, ant lion and buffalo weaver). The lodges guides and trackers are experts in the circle of life, and how it spins both slowly and frenetically in the African bush. They will offer you wildlife lessons from their own cultures and knowledge. They will tell stories and share anecdotes. They will explain, inform, educate and then sit back and let you fall in love with the wild in your own way.
