Ummm...Don't Get TOO Close!

Hippos are the most dangerous of the "Big Five" most try to see on safari. At our game lodge, we could see them in the Mara River below -- a binocular distance away. But at night, they had a path they walked as they grazed, and the path took them right up to our balcony! We could hear them chomping at night...when we were safely tucked into our little bungalow. I took this photo safely from our jeep on a drive to the Mara River.
Fabulous shot of this wonderful beast. Here in SA the buffalo is the most dangerous of the big five.
