The #himba or OvaHimba have a very fascinating history .. I know I owe many people a basic write up on #whotheyare .. I spent a wonderful #lateafternoon in the #village with them, I learnt a lot from a wonderful gentleman called Festus who doubled up as our translator & guide. As a #tourguide myself I believe that the learning process never ends as each outing is a huge opportunity for me to learn something new, each new client will ask #somethingnew .. I appreciate the Himba tribe even more after today’s authentic experience & am really looking forward to more #amazingencounters .. #tourguideonduty #wilsonchifike #overland #safari #peopleexperiences #himbatribe #namibia #naturalistguide (at Opuwo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CePSgoGjmeMdWt5X5n33UKF3XKjFwFG395QQT80/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

No .. nothing’s wrong at all with these elephants .. while it’s uncommon for elephants to actually or habitually lie down to sleep the #desertelephant will lie down in the shade to preserve energy & evade the relentless sun / heat of the Namib .. contrary to misinformation from some schools of thought lying down does not endanger the elephant in any way. Elephants require as much as 16 hours a day to feed & to do so there’s very little space for #idletime as most of their time is spent foraging for bush with enough cover for them to feed .. #askme #tourguideonduty #wilsonchifike #visitAfrica https://www.instagram.com/p/CeEzemADbAiWfu1Bk8eLQ8vQPlUrV2CzbcGlSU0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Tracking wild animals is never easy especially when they are not collared. Each sighting is a combination of more luck (being in the right place at the right time) than actual tracking skills. Yes it helps to have a good understanding of animal behaviour & knowing how to ‘read the signs’ of animal activity in a particular area gives a tracker / tour guide some sort of advantage. However, we do not operate in zoos & we comb vast tracts if land looking for elusive ‘game’ .. the #desertelephant is one rather elusive giant of the African plains in a habitat that is more natural to sustain elephants, therefore any sightings of the desert adapted sub spieces are always a sight to behold .. #onsafari #tourguideonduty #tourguide #safariguide #wilsonchifike (at Kaokoland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeEyBW9jLU-PkD5H3W4qu8JL2C1odAl0sI4cfM0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
