Mushara 2018

We’re back in Namibia for Mushara field season 2018. This year is our 26th year at Mushara! The Pharaohs came in to greet us trumpeting and bellowing as usual. Still no sign of the Warriors and Actors who didn’t show in 2017 either. Hoping they haven’t moved on to another water hole! And so it begins…   

Happy Birthday to me! Always and extra special day because it means that I’ll be with the eles very soon! Leave for Namibia on the 19th. Stay tuned for posts from the field!

I know its a day late but better late than never. Happy World Ele Day to all of those of you dedicated to making sure eles have a future.

For any of you following the long simmering drama of Smokey (the ol guy) and Ozzie “the Kid” (rumored to be the quickest trunk draw in Mushara), Caitlin just posted her latest Nat Geo Blog about their ongoing rivalry here.

A young bull ele gave me a huge head shake of disapproval as I captured ID pics from our bunker.
