James carried the load and keep us entertained on most of this drive. How does he do it? I loved when he described his honeymoon trip. It brought back some of my own memories. His was more disastrous than mine but had so much of nature in it. The nature must have been the saving grace of it all. Thank for sharing James!
Dear James, thanks for your great Kgalagadi-TP-story! Same we had 10 years ago, my now 90-year old mother who was 80 at our first KTP-visit and me, her daughter... Germans with a 4x4 rental campervan, used to tent-camping f.e. on tracks in New Zealand but not to the (south-african) camps and the behaviour of the camping KTP-wildlife-photo-enthusiasts with their special body, clothing and in their special age,... With setting up camp (5 times round the place to find the right spot, choose the wrong and only relax with the first sip of beer...), with a broken and nearly lost water tank, self-opening back-doors of the camper, repairs in the middle of nowhere,... with the first experiences of a little bit sand-driving and great days and evenings in the wonderful camps in Botswana at the pans in Mabua... Hyenas around, lions roaring and of course the ground suirrels,... Since then we have been there 8 times and I would love to go there again as soon as possible... (but then with my own car, a LandRover Defender...) And thanks for all your live-videos, stories, information,... I learned a lot!
James you are so cute and funny, I love you! and this program is mucking afazing from a South African gran living in Israel and loving this program. hug totsiens skattie
Just a bit more on vultures. The Cape Vulture or Cape Griphon is bigger than the Whiteback. The Lappet is biggest of all in South Africa. Mostly the Lappet can tear open the skin of a deceased animal, while the other vulture species have to wait for the Lappet or a predator to do that for them. The Whiteback is more fierce than most other vultures. Vultures are the clean up crew of nature and prevent the spread of diseases. They can clean up a carcass, leaving only bones, in a matter of hours! They are scavengers, and are generally not known to kill any animal, and will only eat deceased animals, whether killed by predators or dying from natural causes. Unfortunately they are being poisoned, intentionally and unintentionally, by farmers and poachers. Large numbers of them die at poisoned carcasses every year. This has helped to make most of the species endangered and critically endangered.
Wonderful. I could listen to stories from James all day.
Could listen to James all drive. Such a natural presenter.
Simply fabulous drive. Such great storytelling and conversation with James.
