Okavango Delta

The Okavango Delta Wildlife Area has majestic elephants and ubiquitous reptiles. It is one of Africa's largest and most unique wildlife park destinations.

The characteristic of the wildlife sanctuary is that the land area is relatively large, so there are more wild animals inhabiting here. Therefore, the main project here is to take off-road vehicles to track wild animals. Many wild animals come out at night, and there are activities in the early morning and evening when the weather is cool. Therefore, to watch wild animals is to start early in the morning and rest at noon.

Only when I got here did I know what a real animal paradise is, running on the boundless grassland, in the bushes, grass, mountains, trees, rivers, there are cute animals everywhere, whether it is close at hand or observing with a telescope, There are animals everywhere.

Africa|My Private Secret Realm The real animal paradise watching "Out of Africa" many years ago, I am very envious of Aunt Mei's life in Africa, primitive, free, and integrated into nature. No bush camping in Africa is complete. The Okavango Delta, also known as the "Okavango Swamp", is located in northern Botswana, covering an area of approximately 15,000 square kilometers. It is the world's largest inland delta, formed by the Okavango River flowing into the Kalahari Desert. When Botswana is praised for its "wild beauty without losing its wild beauty", the Okavango Delta is the jewel in its crown. .Deep into the hinterland of Okavango Delta Time: Two days and one night Cost: 2k/person (including two nights of accommodation in Maun camp and all the expenses of the entire two days and one night camping, accommodation and transportation). ‍Traveling through the vast delta by canoe In the hinterland, we were divided into groups of two on four canoes, and the carry-on luggage and supplies for two days and one night were transported by two other ships. How to identify the direction in the vast reeds is my biggest concern. The captain said that they have their own unique road signs: a tree or a flower is possible, and it will change with the seasons. Along the way, we watched elephants dining up close, crocodiles basking in the sun and Buffalo bathing. .At sunset, watch the hippopotamus before taking a bath. The captain warns not to get close to the hippopotamus easily. It is an animal 100 times more terrifying than a crocodile. It is the real best killer in this area. It turns out that hippos have a very strong sense of territory and family. The hippopotamus families on this delta all have their fixed waters. Of course, the boundaries of the hippos are the hippos themselves. Once the same species, humans or other animals enter, they will be " Pursuing to the end" means that there is almost no possibility of escape. When I asked the captain, "Then how do you know the boundary of watching hippos?" He didn't answer, but smiled mysteriously. . Camp dinner & stargazing When we returned to the camp again, the chef had already prepared dinner for us, which was much richer than expected: roast pork, fried rice, hot soup, drinks, and even two large bottles of red wine. When the sun sank completely on the horizon of the Okavango River, each of us was a little bit drunk. The chat with the campfire began. I greet you to record a podcast, which is the freshest collection of African experiences. When we looked up at the sky again, we were shocked and speechless. There was no light in the surroundings except the bonfire, and when he looked up, he seemed to fall into the Milky Way. .Before hiking and tracking animals in the wild, I was warned that I might encounter snakes on the road, which scared me to death. Fortunately, there was no danger on the road. At this time, the captain became a "biology teacher", explaining to us how to identify animals through feces and footprints along the way; seeing the bones of the real hippo after fighting; and what plants can be used as medicine, and what plants can be used to brush teeth for whitening. I cherish the days when I had no electricity, no internet, no refrigerator, no bathing or makeup, running after animals, watching the sunset, and talking under the stars. Natural creations have given us enough, come here to feel it! . Tips: 1. Very, very, very dry! When I was fully armed with a hat, sunglasses, mask, long sleeves and trousers, I was still 2 degrees black, and I was close to nature. Of course, I also had to pay a price (I will come back for nothing if I raise it. [笑笑R] 2. Mosquito repellent potion. It’s not the kind you use everyday. You must buy a mosquito repellent in the wild. We bought one that can only be sprayed on objects. Spraying tents is especially useful; 3. This is a real trip to the wild, long-sleeved trousers and outdoor Shoes can better protect you.

This area is somewhat close to the edge of the desert. The waters in the entire reserve are very rich, with some kingfishers, horses, and crocodiles. It is also a natural refuge for many large animals. I feel that the animals inside are living very happily.
