!Welcome To Your Safari!
After days of exhausing flights, stopovers and car drives, you're finally here: the entrance of the national park. You've made it. But this is only the beginning, your real safari journey will start soon. An endless horizon of ''savannah'' surrounded by ''mountains'' and ''tropical rainforests'' awaits behind this small checkpoint. And who knows how many amazing animals are lying back there?
<span id="intro_1"><<click "[...]">><<replace "#intro_1">>"Thousands of different species", Robert tells you. "''Mammals'', ''birds'' and ''reptiles''. This park includes the best of east African safaris. It's also the biggest in the region." Your guide looks at you as excited as a child despite his mid-forties. "I've done it a thousand times, but even 20 years later I still feel like the first time."
"Also, feel free to ask me anything", he says, "although I'll probably tell you about it first because I talk a lot." It's true that he talks a lot, and sometimes in a very peculiar way. He definitely has encyclopedic knowledge about the animals but he's also very precise when he tells you about them.
<span id="intro_2"><<click "[...]">><<replace "#intro_2">>"If we're lucky we'll see some big game today! ''Lions'', ''elephants'', maybe even ''leopards''! But you know, when you go on a safari, you drive a lot through open spaces looking for the big game so fortunately to entertain yourself on the way you have the birds. I'm a birder myself and I'm sure we'll see many fascinating ones today!" He just finished his sentence when the ranger came back to the car to give him the signed permit to enter.
You drive through the portal into this wild area. But where should you go first?

"What I can also say", adds Robert. "Chimpanzees live in communities that typically range from 20 to more than 150 members, but spend most of their time traveling in small parties of just a few individuals."

"I can say a bit more about it", mentions Robert. "As far as feeding is concerned, it eats grain and other seeds, invertebrates which it digs for with powerful downward stabs of its long bill. It opens corncob kernels before they are fully ripe, bulbs and fleshy roots of certain plants, frogs and small reptiles, fruits and berries."

"Funny thing is", he informs. "In East Africa, cheetahs primarily live on scrub forests, grasslands, savannahs, open fields, steppes and arid environments where preys are available, in which are suitable to be the cheetahs' main hunting grounds.

"I can also tell you this", he tells. "Adult chimpanzees in the wild weigh between 40 and 65 kilograms. Males can measure up to 160 centimetres and females up to 130 centimetres in height."
"Fascinating thing", says Robert. "Chimpanzees live in communities that typically range from 20 to more than 150 members, but spend most of their time traveling in small parties of just a few individuals. The eastern chimpanzee is both arboreal and terrestrial and spend its nights in the trees, while most of its daytime hours are spent on the ground. Chimpanzees walk using the soles of their feet and their knuckles, and they can walk upright for short distances."
"I may be too precise but", he mentions. "The chimpanzee spends time both in trees and on the ground, but usually sleeps in a tree, where it builds a nest for the night.

"You must also know", continues Robert. "The wildcat is a largely solitary animal, except during the breeding period. The size of its home range varies according to terrain, the availability of food, habitat quality, and the age structure of the population."

"Fascinating thing", remarks Robert. "The mocking cliff chat is mainly insectivorous but also eats fruit and feeds on the nectar of aloes, such as the Krantz aloe Aloe arborescens. It chief foraging technique is to pounce on food on the ground from a perch bit it will also glean food from branches and foliage."
"Funny thing is", he remarks. "The mocking cliff chat occurs in a neat band from central Ethiopia in the north through east Africa into Zimbabwe, south-eastern Botswana, southern Mozambique and eastern South Africa as far as the far east of Western Cape province.

"I want to keep it simple", says Robert. "The pied wheatear is rather shy but is conspicuous when spotted. It is not gregarious and single birds or pairs are found in rough, rocky countryside."
