Chobe National Park - Game Drive

In the afternoon while in Chobe we went on our Game Drive into Chobe National Park in Botswana. It was a tad warm, but fun nonetheless.

Had to show what kind of vehicle we were driving in around Botswana.

Its one of those safari cars, and yes that would be no doors. We were going very fast, but we were safe. I promise.

Can you tell it's the dry season??

An impala.

Look at all the elephants?! It was crazy how many there were, and amazing too.

Sable. They are so hard to find, because they usually run off. This was far off, and they were already running away. These are Tyler's favorite type of antelope here. He thinks they look very regal. It's true, they do.

Elephant walking in-between cars. The animals at the park seem to be used to all the vehicles and boats, but as long as they don't get in their way. These animals are not tame at all, so if you got in their way or they felt intimidated, then they would come after you.

Red horned-bill bird. We saw these guys everywhere, funny looking things.

A Kudu.

This little baby elephant was trying to just do what everyone else was doing, getting all cooled off with the mud, but he didn't really know how to do it. It was so cute!

Came across this sad scene, a dead elephant. The guide said they saw some lions or leopards here earlier, but they couldn't tear through the hide. So most likely the guides would come back and cut the hide so then the other animals could eat. So sad, but it's the truth of what life is out here. I wouldn't have put this up, but thought you should see how real this all is.

Almost looks like a bald eagle, huh? Beautiful!

My favorite bird. It was so colorful!!!

Saying good-bye to all the elephants.

I'm still looking up the names of the birds, so I will update when I find them.
