Rising before the sun at Tarangire National Park, we expected fewer animals due to last night’s rain. However, the day was surprisingly eventful. In a rare occurrence, the photography group shared a tense hour with a pride of lions as they ambushed a pair of warthogs. Meanwhile, the wildlife group was in awe as a bachelor group of elephants came within an arms length of the truck. The sight left some students speechless and in tears. As if that wasn’t enough, the day ended with another suspenseful moment as a lioness attempted to stalk a giraffe. Although the giraffe was able to escape, a baby warthog was less fortunate.
