Animal Behavior: Lab Chimps Go Outside

Wednesday, September 7th, 2011

These lab chimps have been raised indoors and are treated to their first day outside. Imagine what it must be like to feel grass under your feet for the first time…

The movements and curiosity of humans look so similar to those of this animal behavior. Lab chimps share so many mannerisms with humans. Its so awesome to get a glimpse of these similarities in a video like this.

Experience wildlife firsthand with an overland trip to Africa.

A Time Lapse of the Night Sky in April 2011

Tuesday, April 26th, 2011

A Sahara sand storm, the milky way, stars in abundance, the dance of clouds shifting shapes and formations and the ever changing vistas of immense beauty is what photographer Terje Sorgjerd managed to capture when he undertook a photographic project in El Teide, Spain.

As is mentioned by the artist himself, his goal was to capture the intense beauty of the location, and showcase the splendour in a series of time lapsed images.

The result is breath-taking, and inspiring, see it for yourself.

One thing is certain, the world we live in, in its fullness of beauty, is to be taken care of, by each and every one of us.

Let’s build… Each one teach one!

LMFAO Friday: Overlanders are not the only party animals in Africa

Friday, November 6th, 2009

Elephants stumbling home drunk after a heavy night at the pub, monkeys falling flat on their faces. Watch this hilarious (and cute) video to see what happens when Africa’s wildlife has one too many…

With more than 100,000 view on YouTube, this video illustrates that gap year students on an overland tour, are not the only ones to have “one too many” in the wild savannahs of Africa.

Note: This video is NOT set-up! It is a well documented fact that elephants and many other African animals get drunk from eating fruit that falls to the ground and ferments under the hot African sun. The fruit from the Amarula Tree is apparently an elephants favourite!

Enjoy – Andre.
