Royal Malewane. It was to be the day to find elephants. They were way down in the south of the property. It also turned into giraffe day. First we found the elephants. They were in an area of thick bush. We parked on the road and the elephants crossed right in front of us. Often so close you could touch them.
The best experience was a young elephant. Probably two years old. He was right next to the vehicle kicking the ground to loosen up plants and stripping the tasty parts off the plants. We watched him for a while and when we started to move the elephant got upset. Trumpeted, flapped his ears and was very cross with us
He started stomping his feet then took off at a rapid pace in the other direction.
Next we found a group of about seven giraffes. These are the most beautiful graceful animals. A very youngs giraffe was necking (fighting) with a much older giraffe a lot of fun to watch.
We finished up finding aa leopard but in very thick area. Could just see the paws. So home we went for breakfast. Today we have a seafood buffet.
