Serengeti National Park is one of the best-known wildlife sanctuaries in the world, and symbolises the classic African safari. With more than 2 million wildebeest, half a million Thomson's gazelle, and a quarter of a million zebra, it has the greatest concentration of plains game in Africa. The Serengeti is also synonymous with the annual wildebeest and zebra migration.

Unlike the other elephants we saw on this trip - in packs, surrounded by young - this guy was all on his own. Ratik recognized him, due to that broken right tusk, as an elephant known for charging vehicles (probably how the tusk got that way). He eyed us for a moment, making me a little nervous, before taking off to chase after some giraffes. Rude!

Day 8: Savuti - Xakanaxa: I wonder if all these broken teeth came as a result of digging for water etc.?

When the weather is really hot elephants suffer from headaches, this causes them to release a fluid from their must gland. Taken in Masai Mara NP.
A short distance from the crocodile we watched a herd of maybe 20 elephants that came to the Zambizi River to drink. They ultimately took the plunge and with many babies small than these here swam across the river.
