After two years I decided to make a longer version with more details from this trip, it is always hard to keep it interesting once you create a longer version.

I hope it did work out.

@JPSI have enjoyed your video over breakfast, great fun. Beautiful footage of the wild dogs preparing and hunting. Like Bracquene I am longing to go to Zambia, June 2021 it will definitely happen.

@JPSgreat footage of SLNP, enjoyed it! Totally agree on your highlights, but there are many more imo. I loved how the hyena stood under the leopard kill in the tree, hoping a meal would fall down in his mouth.

 

I really thought you were on foot in minute 3.50, so when the elephant came closer I was a bit shocked how close he would get, but then the car moved... lol

 

I read in your bio you're from Shanghai, so was really surprised to here you speak Dutch when you had the dilemma of passing the elephant or keep waiting. What did you do in the end?

The vulture eating through the hippo's eye was a bit graphic, @BikoI hope you didn't take a bite of your breakfast at that moment?

@LarsS Thanks for your kind words.

 

Yes that's correct I am a Dutch guy working as an expatriate in Shanghai for 4 years now.

 

We just waited a few minutes for that elephant until he was at a safe distance.
