On a recent safari in
Serengeti, i spent a great time in solitude around the Gol Kopjes. Beside
watching prides of lions in this area all on ourselves, i was amazed when i
saw some 3 Giraffes who had trekked for kilometres across the endless plains
to come to the Kopjies. It was a time when most of Serengeti was very dry and
off course all animals were looking for food. What was amazing is how they
got to know of the Kopjes even though they were out of sight from anywhere.
Having spent almost a week in this area, i could see that Elephants had been
here at some point as can be seen from broken trees. How they were able to
find this place too was another guess.
It just got to show
how intelligent the animals are and using natural instinct to find food.
Trekking across the
plains. Naabi hill in the background
With no landmark as a
bearing, these animals just followed their instinct
They ended up at the
Kopjes where they spent some days
There was plenty to
eat once they got here.
