Botswana investigates elephant deaths near Chobe National Park
The dead elephants were first found by conservation group Elephants Without Borders (EWB), which counted 57 carcasses by the end of October, mostly in an area adjacent to the wildlife-rich Chobe National Park.
The Department of Wildlife and National Parks said it could not yet establish the total number of deaths as officials had only flown over some of the coordinates provided by EWB.

Good afternoon lovely people…
Not to scare anyone but to Alert campers.Please be very careful on the campsites that are close to towns/villages & settlements. This could be any campsites inside or outsite the parks. My client’s vehicle was almost broken into by 2 young men (shown on the video). They tried to open both the canopy doors and the vehicle doors, damaging the driver key lock slot and the weatherstrip moulding seal. This happened in Khwai Northgate campsite 2 nights back….anyone who can identify these 2 men please inbox me.

Anm.: die Täter wurden erkannt und bereits verhaftet.
