56. A story of an African Safari An adventure experienced by three little boys. PART ONE

61. Which snake do you think it is? Me! It is me! I’m a puff adder. The book says I’m ‘large, thick bodied, sluggish, broad head is covered in small scales. Tail very short. Body scales rough. Body yellowish to light brown with numerous dark chevrons… active at dusk, Up to 30 young born in late summer. May give deep warning hiss. Bites readily. Venom causes swelling and pain, occasionally death. Found throughout Africa.’

63. Does Leon win? Is a snake an animal? No! I’m a banana, not a snake. (How can I get them to come closer so I can SHOW THEM my FANGS?) A snake is a reptile. Reptiles are members of the animal kingdom. So yes, Leon won – the snake IS an animal.

65. But what about the stick on the other side of the car? No, a stick is not an animal. A stick comes from a tree, so it is part of a plant. HOWEVER, a stick can be an insect. During their exploration of the camp the boys saw several stick insects. BUT THIS STICK? It is a very special thing. It is a message – a signal. There’s one animal in the African bush that likes breaking such leafy sticks off trees to carry around until they get bored, then they drop them. The boys soon found out what that animal is….

66. Compare two of the little boys to the elephant in SIZE Why is Taz holding his nose???

67. … .because he’s never ever smelled anything like an elephant before Elephant poo!

71. The boys decided to have a counting competition – each had to pick a species, and the one who counted the most members of that species on a day would be the winner. Guess who picked the impala to count?

72. Once there were so many buffaloes crossing the road that we just had to sit and wait. You don't argue with a herd of buffaloes!

73. Did we see lions? Not everyone sees lions. But Eric is usually lucky. So make sure you're close to Eric!

75. He had spotted an eagle: An African fish eagle

76. Then we approached a bridge. There was something sitting on the railing

77. One of the fishermen of the region. A heron.

78. The heron didn't like the noise from the car and left

79. Oupa stopped the car. He ALWAYS stops the car on a bridge. WHY?

80. Because there are almost always things to see... IN the river OR next to the river This time it was a saddle-bill stork

81. And ME – Baz saw me too, and pointed me out to the boys. He asked them what was the difference between a turtle and a tortoise and THEY DIDN’T KNOW! Imagine that!

82. And sausages growing on a sausage tree!
