Hi and thanks, Rebecca And Sometimes Euan for sharing. Wow...you, two are very fortunate to experience this encounter with African elephants in wild. Are they working elephants? How do the handler bond with elephants? I have only ridden on an Asian elephant and fed her. I like giraffes which have beautiful eyes and their faces actually are huge and I fed them lettice...They all are precious creatures. I have never seen these many lionesses in my entire life...11:56 OMG...a flat tire in Africa!!!...13:19...I will be scared to death worrying cheetahs...lions... I hope you two are safe and sound. Thank you for taking us on your adventure along with you. Well done. 🙋♀🙋♀🛶🛶
Thanks for watching! We are defintiely extremely lcuky that we got to experience such great things on this trip :) So, if I rememebr right the mum elephant was rescued and was human tolerant, and then she had her three babies at the reserve. They're not put to work at all, they just get to spend their days wandering around and eating - with the occasional tourist coming to visit. They were very lovely and playful and enjoyed ignoring Euan when he was tryig to feed them to wind him up. The handlers are the same few staff members all the time but I'm not sure how bonded they are as I don't think they like to impose on the elephants too often outside of feeding times and bed time. The flat tyre was defintely a bit worrying. luckily it happened in an area near where they often stop for coffee breaks which doesn't get much animal activity. But we were all on the look out for sure! 😂
Glad to see you back. It has been a while. 💜
Thank you! :)
