Slowly awakening, I find myself in darkness, the wind gently stirring the fabric of the tent. Despite the chill in the air, I'm snug beneath a thick duvet, with comforting warmth emanating from the hot water bottle at my feet. Suddenly, the sound that stirred me repeats—a lion's roar pierces the night, accompanied by the eerie cackling of hyenas and the distinct bark of jackals.

At that moment, I'm momentarily disoriented, until the realization hits me—I'm in Kenya, on safari. I drift back into sleep, attempting to suppress my bubbling excitement for the adventures that await in the days and nights ahead. I awake again, this time to the familiar chime of my iPhone alarm.

    Curious, do the Game Wardens clip their ears to help identify them?

    I saw a sketch of one of these beautiful creatures yesterday and was saddened to see it called "Black death". Now I'm curious why. I'll be looking into that in a minute...

    Mara looks quite old and very wrinkly, surely has some stories to tell. Nice to see not all elephants have been killed for their ivory!
