DUBAI: Reclining in the middle of a dug-out canoe, slicing through a clump of reeds that gives way to a large open pond covered in lily pads, the wonder of the Okavango Delta truly becomes clear.
A mokoro ride is a staple of a visit to Botswana’s tourism crown jewel the place where the mighty Okavango River flows in from the Angolan highlands, splintering off across 15,000 square kilometers of African plains towards the Kalahari Desert.
Being punted along by a wiry villager from a neighboring village, who stands sentinel at the back of the canoe with a large pole, reminiscent of a Venetian gondolier, is a favored experience for international tourists, and the waterways are often full with foreign faces taking in the country’s famed wildlife. But not this year, of course.

Savuti, a region within Chobe National Park is known for its epic wildlife sightings.Apart from its general wildlife sightings, is the two prides of lions, the Marsh Pride and the Northern Pride.
These are currently the trending lions everywhere in the world because their two dominant males namely Sexghaxghama and his brother Torn Nose have reached the peak of their age.The Marsh pride has always been famous but they were made even more famous by the National Geographic Documentary, ‘Savage Kingdom’.The two males rule over a pride of about 31 lions.
With age, one turns not to be strong enough even in human nature. At this point, wildlife enthusiasts across the world are waiting to see who will reign supreme,will Sexghaxghama and his brother,Torn Nose,be overthrown.Below are a few images of the Marsh Pride and sighting from Savuti.
