  • Let's start our South African adventure with a SAFARI!
    After a 20 hour travel day, we made it to Johannesburg. We were blessed to be joined by Tommy's parents for this adventure, Tom and Jackie. We headed to our Airbnb in Marloth Park. Marloth Park is a wildlife sanctuary situated on the southern end of Kruger National Park. It was the perfect place to stay because it was only a 30-minute drive to the main southern entrance to Kruger National Park and it has its own wildlife and boasts four of the big five. In Marloth park, you are able to walk around freely with the animals.
    Kruger National Park is a breathtakingly beautiful wildlife reserve in South Africa. It has an incredibly diverse selection of animals and terrain and is world-renowned for housing the "Big-5". On our first day in the park, we were able to see elephants, giraffes, buffalo, a leopard, and SO MUCH MORE!
    We are so incredibly excited to be starting this new South African series and hope you guys are too! If you enjoyed this video, give it a 'thumbs up' and leave a comment down below! 💜

    For us South Africans going to the kruger is like our therapy. Best type of therapy out there.

    South Africa is an incredible place to land in, but please read up about how these african wild animals behave, their needs, their territorial defence. They are dangerous for good reason. They need to survive in the harshest environment. It is their land. If people respect that, and keep their windows rolled up we will see fewer tourist self-inflicted, reckless tragedies.
    Also how to cope with a sudden attack.
    Hoping tourists will keep learning how to be truly responsible in these precious, environments. 👍🌱😍🐅

    • @peterwilson6805
      @peterwilson6805 Год назад

      no you dont need to keep your windows up 99% of the times the animals are more scared of you than you are of them but dont hang out of your vehicle but this was a great video
      and the main reason some animals charge is if they have a baby and they think your threatening them or their baby or
      And rhinos have bad eye sight so they arent 100% sure your not trying to like attack them or your just watching so because they dont know if your like hunting them or your just chillin they might charge

    • @peterwilson6805
      @peterwilson6805 Год назад

      and if a elephant is one side of your vehicle and the herd is the other side it might think your singling it off from the herd so you can like hunt it so then it might charge
