The underground elephant hide in the Mashatu Game Reserve, located in the Northern Tuli Game Reserve of Botswana bordering South Africa, is a wildlife photographer's dream coming true. At a waterhole, the whole hide has been sunk into the ground right next to a waterhole that is in a prime elephant habitat. But it is not only elephants that are coming through to drink and bath at the waterhole, there are also kudu, impala, steenbok, mongooses and even baboons.
Kudos at united film works for the amazing footage and thx for sharing it with us!
The Northern Tuli Game Reserve is a game reserve spanning some 72 000 hectares of privately-owned land in the north-eastern sector of Botswana’s Tuli Block. It is bordered by South Africa to the south and Zimbabwe to the east. The area is home to a diverse range of wildlife, renowned for its Tuli elephants - the largest elephant population on private land in Africa, as well as to over 350 bird species recorded.

Mashatu Game Reserve: A Rock Python after eating a baby Impala (video)
The following video, shot in the Mashatu Game Reserve in eastern Botswana, shows a rock python which presumingly had just swallowed a baby Impala. The snake is trying to move up the rocky slope but its load is simply too heavy and keeps it sliding down... Thx for the amazing footage to Derek Solomon of kuyimba.com!
