Surviving Africa

David's quest is to film one of the last of the big tuskers elephants of Southern Africa. His African expedition proves to be a bonanza of African animal encounters as David catches a giant striking rock python, gets extremely close to lions and leopards, walks onto 5 angry rhino and is even chased by an angry bull elephant. All the big five animals of Africa are filmed and all animal encounters are at extremely close range. The highlights are the leopard and hippo encounters and a very close encounter with an African warthog. The film climaxes with an encounter with a huge big tusker elephant. The film was shot at the Sabi Sabi Game Reserve and all footage was gained from a topless/doorless jeep and also on foot in the African wilderness. 44 minute duration. Rated (G)
