Stories from the Bush: Raymond's Most Memorable Sightings

Unpredictable Days in the Bush

I find this a very difficult question, as I have had so many amazing and surprising wildlife encounters. Every day in the bush is unique – and you just never know what you will see around the next corner. As a safari guide, I recount just a few most memorable sightings.

A Giraffe Birth in Tarangire National Park

A giraffe giving birth and the calf dropping to the ground in Tarangire National Park. We stayed for a couple of hours, watching and waiting for the calf to stand. It finally happened and was a special experience, and my guests couldn’t have been happier.

Newborn Cheetah Cubs in Serengeti National Park

Four cheetah cubs, approximately a week old, with their mother in southern Serengeti, toppling over and nursing. Hidden away in an acacia bush hideaway with their eyes still closed.

Hyenas Overpower Lionesses in Ngorongoro Crater

Witnessed more than 70 hyenas taking over a zebra kill from two lionesses in the crater. Surprisingly, after one hour, nothing was left on the ground. I have never seen anything like this before; it was truly remarkable.

A Long River Crossing at the Mara River

The longest migration river crossing lasted for about four hours and witnessed several crocodile attacks in the Mara River.

A Rare Cheetah Success Story in Eastern Serengeti National Park

Female cheetah raising 5 cubs to adulthood in the Eastern Serengeti. (This is the highest record.)

A Close Encounter with a Musth Elephant

Coming across a bull elephant in musth made me back up for nearly a kilometer until I found a detour.

Unexpected Hunt by Jackals in Serengeti National Park

Witnessed two black-backed jackals killing a fully grown male Thomson gazelle in Serengeti. I never thought they could do this before.

Lions vs Buffalo in Ngorongoro Crater

Witnessed a pride of lions (14 lions) taking down an old bull buffalo in the Ngorongoro crater, though the action took more than one hour before the kill was successful.
