Ok wait, so at this campsite you have a bathroom and a shower area that a lion, at night time mind you, can access. Either by walking in or jumping the walls. Well thank you, but I don't think so, lol!
@@stephencook7337 domesticated have a day off 😂 . Why because she has a radio collar on. Let me guess her owners have a 5 ft by 5 ft cat flap, and she brings them little gifts like mice, sparrows and robins. Then when she’s done that, takes a big shite in the litter tray 😂.
We who live on continents that lost most of their wildcats (or at least lions) long ago ...I love the tone of her voice ...'just another lovely day in Botswana' like it's no big deal ...but respect still in tact for the lioness. How she dragged her huge kill in there is a bit of a mystery!
Oh dear. I was stuck in the toilets at Phalaborwa whilst my husband sat listening to the news in the range rover quite loud and the staff were trying to get his attention to tell him that an elephant had me blocked in.🐘
I can see the picture Lynne, not that mine is similar. I was about to leave the toilet at Tshokwane one morning when I got wildly motioned by onlookers to stay inside. A green mamba had "blocked" the door with a huge frog in the corner behind the gauze door being his reason for entry. So I stood there musing for a while, then gently pushed the door open with Mr Mamba behind the door and stepped out. I got hold of a stick and gently encouraged my would be door keeper while peeping at him around the corner every now and then. The next minute he came skipping past wildly and disappeared into the bush. Well he almost had me blocked. Bush Greetings!
marmitenot its gonna be occupied for a while, lol. and when it does become vacant, I hope you don't mind stepping over the bones and maggots because there's no cleaning staff 😂😂
Soooo.. a pride of lions who are at about 400 pounds each can just walk up on me while I'm taking a dump, with no doors to protect me ? I'll take a cabin with double pane windows and a steel door , f** this sh**t smh
Nice stash spot, might even be able to get a drink there and wash that kudo down, every lion likes a nice long drink after a nice big meal, and no vultures or hyenas..Well down lioness, well done...
That lioness is still kicking ass with that collar someone burdened her with. Leave the world alone why do you need to know where a lion lives and dies.
Me saying to myself, how do this lady still think of camping around here when a lion just had a kill in their intended camp area. Interesting, either she's a lioness herself or she has some magical powers that the lions can't hurt her when they get to her camp.
As long as you follow safari safety rules it's not as risky as u perceive it to be.. for nearly 50years wild camping has been done these parts of the world. I have done it over 20 times myself
To many subscriptions I have Jackie, but yous got added because of that place called Namibia where I grew up amongst the family farms, the coast (Henties and Swakop) and the Namib. It is ingrained and your videos just struck a chord this evening. We'll be browsing through! Dirk&Adrene
@@jackiecilliers It rings a distant memory Jackie. I was in my early twenties when we uprooted from South West Africa and have since been back only a handful of times. I am quite convinced the Joostes were aquantances of the Simpsons. Would love to make contact but as things stand we are anti social media as a rule. I'll check your "about". Thanks for the kind reply.
Viva Panthera Leo,welcome to wild Africa.. a great safari memory while sitting around the campfire with a cold Mosi beer..listening to the lions and Scops Owls.. hope to return for a 8th safari..some day..maybe a decent safari walk in...South Luangwa .....oh by the way it's the buffalo and hippos who are the ones you need to be careful with Life memories...
When we lived in South Africa we used these campsites in Botswana on a regular basis. There is nothing like living close to nature. It is something I miss now back in the U K.
@@PritpalSingh-ys6ol You camp at your own risk. You are not allowed any weapons. You soon learn to take care and watch for movement or sound especially at night when going to the ablutions. It is very common for lions to visit the camp sites at night. And remember the sites are always some distance from the next site. Savute is one of the few where the sites are fairly close. Botswana is a very special place.
You have to have been there to understand the magic, and yes, it is completely safe when you follow these rules.....after all, they like eating Kudu, not human!
@@jackiecilliers Hi Jackie, you are quite correct. Also these game reserves can only be accessed with a 4x4. You need to be completely self sufficient as places like Central Kalahari game reserve have no water, so you must carry all you need for your visit. You need a properly kitted out vehicle. I used a Land Rover Defender 110 kitted out for overland travel.
They need a compound and a wall. Wall may be made up of wires but it definitely is a barrier. And when in lions region, this is not abnormal. But I have seen simple huts made up of dried grass and sand and life goes on.
How did she even get it in there?? And I’m wondering how is she gonna get it off? I’m sure it has stiffened up. She’ll probably tear that shower cubbie up pulling the kudu out.
