Produktbeschreibung

Travel Tales: The African Safari Reader is a collection of African wildlife safari stories including some very scary tales of coming close to possible trouble with wild animals in your African travels but fortunately managing to just escape unscathed. It is also a collection of some of the fearful sorts of things that can and do happen to travelers, but mostly these will not happen to you. But if they do, you get to experience real, raw fear including sometimes fear for your very own life. These are very unsettling occasions that may pop up now and again in your travels. Travel Tales: The African Safari Reader, includes specific tales of close calls, and, hopefully, even occasional great escapes by travelers, specifically on safari in Africa with lions, snakes, hippos, elephants, Cape buffalos, crocodiles, baboons, hyenas, and more. This collection of true tales is the place to hear about African wildlife. I hope dangerous African wildlife encounters don't happen to you, but if they do, I hope you manage to escape and overcome them. Hopefully, you'll be all the wiser for reading about such things throughout these pages. By reading the accounts of others on safari you'll gain a healthier respect for what it is like to experience the true wild. And you'll gain a better respect for Mother Nature in all her glory as you witness and enjoy her magnificent African wildlife creations. Travel Tales: The African Safari Reader includes examples of bad things that occasionally happen to travelers despite their best efforts to avoid such things. But bad things DO happen on occasion, and the best thing to do is to avoid them in the first place. But if we cannot, we should do our best to escape them. Again, while there's no easy, simple miracle list of failsafe strategies for always staying safe and surviving each dangerous situation with wild animals that may arise, there are, nevertheless, meaningful takeaway strategies from the many examples presented in this book that'll enable one to develop and keep in mind ways to enhance personal safety and reduce the risks of potentially dangerous outcomes. While many of the tales in this book are not strictly about life and death situations surrounding wildlife, some of them are, and some are no less about difficult, embarrassing, and otherwise annoying nuisances that we all would do well to avoid and do without. The scope and variety of close calls with African wildlife in this book may surprise you. And some would never likely even occur to you. Some are even funny, like, for example, some of the examples of exotic wild animal meats you'd maybe try in Africa but would never eat even on a dare back home. Yes, such African wildlife encounters might never even occur to you, but after reading about it in this book, it may give you some pause - who knows? Please note: another book in our True Travel Tales series, namely Travel Tales: Wild Animals includes all of the African wildlife content included in this book plus more wildlife stories from all around the world. If by reading this African Safari Reader you avoid even one unexpected travel danger that you might never have even thought of other than by reading this book, then I'll have accomplished a very useful purpose.
