Forget about the river crossing; today, we're witnessing the road crossing in the Serengeti... #OutThereIsOutHere
HAPPY WORLD GORILLA DAY: Mountain gorillas have endured years of war, hunting, habitat destruction, and disease -- threats so severe that it was once thought the species might be extinct by the end of the twentieth century. But through tenacious and dedicated conservation efforts, their numbers are above 1,000 now. Rwanda and Congo have some. Uganda has the most. Nothing stimulates a human mind like coming face to face with these gentle giants. So, my friend, you haven't been on a safari if you haven't met a mountain gorilla family yet. Needless to say, you will never find mountain gorillas in zoos because they don't survive in captivity. Therefore, Lush Africa Safaris is here to make your dream come true to experience a real life King Kong kingdom -- just less chaotic. #OutThereIsOutHere

Hyena comes too close to lion cubs, and the King of the Jungle literally throws the [Law of the Jungle] book at him. Masai Mara #LushAfricaSafaris
HEY BROTHER: Barely 3 months ago, we met these two boys as big cubs still living with their pride in Serengeti. They have since flown the nest, and now fending for themselves. In the vast Serengeti, there's more than enough to go around. But two sub-adult males killing a buffalo is still no mean feat. Hope these boys grow up to their full potential and even take up a pride of their own, one day. #causeanuproar #OutThereIsOutHere
Lush Africa Safaris in Masai Mara 8/8/24
Our guests in Masai Mara this morning. The Great Migration is ongoing so definitely there's more than enough to go around.... but that doesn't mean you're just going to walk in here and grab someone else's stuff. Like our young tourist can be heard in the video, "get out of his [her] hair..."๐
