And it just got more amazing and wonderful as we observed a most incredible occurrence that even the
monitoring team referred to it as a “piece of history”.
To the top right of this spot came a breeding herd of five
elephants – a mum, three young one’s and a gorgeous little baby! It was such an
exciting moment that Leonard called the ecologist, vet, officers and rangers at Tembe HQ and lodge to let everyone
know about the event that was taking place right before our eyes. Everyone rushed down in
their trucks armed with binoculars and cameras to witness this event. It was
truly breath taking as the breeding herd made their way to join Isilo wallowing
in the mud.
Here in one gathering was the oldest and youngest elephant in Tembe. We
felt in completely in awe of this event, very privileged and honoured to see
such a unique and incredibly special moment in history. It was pure wonderment!
