Chobe Under Canvas is situated in the Chobe National Park which encompasses 11 700 km2 of wilderness, bordered in the north by the beautiful Chobe River, and buffered on all sides by wildlife management areas and forest reserves allowing for the free movement of game. A wildlife enthusiast’s dream, Chobe National Park is one of the top wilderness reserves in the world and is home to the largest single concentration of elephant.
….. and don't forget the little guys!
Having barely avoided running this brave little Dung Beetle over we sat and watched for about 20 minutes as he desperately tried to get his ball of dung out of the tyre tracks.
Every time he tried it would roll back down and with the soft sand it was almost impossible to get a decent purchase.
Eventually he found a slightly smaller mound and succeeded in going on his way.
For those of you interested in the birds we identified almost 100 different species of birds (and that doesn't include some of the LBJs).
