We need as many safari guides who are both ambassadors of the country and advocate of the wildlife as well.
Animal harassments and disturbance really affects their well being.
Too close proximity beyond their comfort, too much noises of tourists and engine starts alters their behaviours and focus.
We have become more of interupters than observers of the wild animals.
So silly some of tour guides immitate animal sounds to make them awake or grab their attention so tourists could take photos. It is unethical guiding practice and such must be confronted instantly.
We must observe animals in their natural environment without disturbance if you crave for more it is clear evidence you mistakenly found yourself in a wrong destination may be you should be in a zoo somewhere else. Politely please respect wild animals. Bring on safari proper items including good camera (NOT) your iphone only so your driver do not need to get too close to an animal for best and clear images.
Remember your practice today determines the right of other future generations to enjoy as you do now.
