First 1: Spotted hyena is the biggest hyena and a top predator -- the largest, and the only hyenas that is a predator-- mainly hunts prey).
2: Brown hyena (second largest and mainly a scavenger -- except in Namibia where it often preys on live seal pups. This is the rarest of the hyenas)
3: Striped hyena (third largest, mainly a scavenger, and the only hyena not only found in Africa -- Middle East, the Caucasus, Central Asia and the Indian subcontinent).
4: Aardwolf (by far the smallest and most harmless of the hyenas -- it eats insects, mainly termites).

‼️‼️Too many VEHICLES , too much STRESS! ‼️‼️🐘🚗

Elephants are sensitive to disturbance. Crowding them with vehicles can cause stress, alter their movements and even lead to dangerous encounters.

We’ve had critical situations in Damaraland with mother elephants in total distress causing the death of new born calves.

Keep it safe: no more than 3 vehicles at a time and always observe from a distance of minimum 70m. Respect their space, protect their world.

A canoe carrying British tourists was capsized and trampled by an elephant in a crocodile-infested river in Botswana.

The bull elephant charged at several canoes which were on a wildlife safari in the Okavango Delta on Saturday. It was believed to have been protecting its young after the guides steering the canoes misjudged how close they could get.

The canoes, known as mokoros, were carrying pairs of British and American tourists. Mokoro safaris are popular for spotting elephants, crocodiles, hippopotamuses and birds including herons and kingfishers.

Footage shows the moment the elephant charges at the boats and the guides begin to back-paddle frantically. The elephant knocks over the two closest boats with its trunk, tipping the tourists into the water.

🫣 Not a fan of this activity, never have been.

The Devil’s Butcher With Feathers.

This is the Southern Ground Hornbill — and that’s not just a meal… it’s a massacre.

Snake, toad, insect limbs, twigs and mud. All jammed into one unsparing beak.

Because in this world, survival isn’t soft. It’s stitched with scales, bones, and sacrifice.

Nature doesn’t apologize.
It feeds.

Meet the Tapping Beetle, or Totokkie, a fascinating little creature found in the heart of Namibia’s ecosystems!

These beetles are named for the unique tapping sound they make when searching for food, as they burrow into wood and other plant material or simply when attracting a mate.

The Totokkie uses its powerful jaws to tap and gnaw, breaking down organic matter in the process, as well as tapping their abdomens on the ground to communicate, making a "tok, tok" sound.

Often seen in forests, grasslands, and even urban areas, the Tapping Beetle plays a crucial role in decomposition, helping to recycle nutrients back into the soil. Their presence in nature is a testament to the incredible processes that sustain our ecosystems.

Next time you hear a faint tapping in the woods, it might just be a Totokkie at work! 🪲

Did you know:

Contact metamorphism happens when hot magma from inside the Earth pushes into surrounding rock layers and heats them up. This heat changes the nearby rocks without melting them, creating new metamorphic rocks. For example, shale can turn into slate, then phyllite, schist, and finally gneiss as it gets closer to the heat. Limestone becomes marble, and sandstone changes into quartzite. These changes only happen near the magma, where the temperature is highest, and pressure plays a smaller role. So, contact metamorphism is like “baking” rocks with heat from magma, causing them to harden and transform.

Namibia’s First Salmon Farm Gets N$41 Million Boost

A new chapter in Namibia’s fishing industry has begun. The African Aquaculture Company (AAC) has raised N$41 million to start the country’s first-ever salmon farming project near Lüderitz.

This investment comes from a partnership between Namibian and Norwegian investors. If all goes well, the project could receive up to N$123 million in total funding.

The project is expected to create jobs, boost local business, and bring new skills to the fishing sector.

Namibia is full of wonders!

The "Desert Dragon" is a nickname for the Neckartal Dam, an engineering marvel located in the southern part of the country. It’s the largest dam in Namibia and was built in the middle of the desert near Keetmanshoop. The dam's primary purpose is to support a massive irrigation scheme, transforming the arid landscape into fertile land for agriculture.

Namibia is also home to the Dragon's Breath Cave, which contains the world’s largest underground non-glacial lake. This hidden gem lies beneath the Kalahari Desert and is named for the warm, misty air that rises from its entrance, resembling a dragon's breath.
