  • EXCLUSIVE: An epic clash of the titans has been caught on camera which saw one angry rhino mum scare off 15 ELEPHANTS Carpenter Martin Meyer was visiting a national park in South Africa when he spotted a rhino mum with her young calf. Martin has been visiting the park for 20 years on and off and often drives there for a ‘builder’s break’ between jobs. But never in all the years he’s been visiting had he seen anything like this before, when one rhino mum faced-off against a whole herd of elephants. Martin’s amazing images were taken around 4.20pm when he came across the brewing confrontation. Martin, who is not naming the park to protect the rhino mother, said: “Armed with an incredibly beautiful horn and her motherly instinct the mother rhino stood her ground and protected the calf, although she was completely outnumbered by the elephants. “A herd of about 15 elephants consisting of a matriarch and a few youngsters and a few sub adult bulls were approaching and going to cross the path of the mum and the calf. “The rhino mum looked intently in their direction and the ellies seemed oblivious to her and the calf and kept encroaching on her personal space. “When they were around 20 metres away from her position she exploded into a sprint with the baby following and ran directly towards the elephants sending them scattering in all directions, with a massive cloud of dust as a result. “After recovering from the initial shock the elephant herd regrouped and aligned themselves next to one another to slowly move closer to the rhino mum, almost taunting her. Some of the young bulls even moved around and circled them from behind.” More than three minutes of stand-off followed as the stare down continued between the rhino mother and the matriarch of the ellies. Martin said: “My adrenaline was pumping and I was holding my breath for what might happen next, my wife always jokes with me that I stop breathing when I see special stuff in the bush. “As the d

  • South Africa - Coffee Bay - 12 September 2020 - Pictured is a cow grazing near Hole-in-the-Wall in the Eastern Cape. There is a traditional Xhosa proverb that states, "Ubuhle bendoda ziinkomo zayo", which loosely translates to “A man is only as handsome as the size of his cattle herd.” Cattle have for a long time had a major role in South African rituals, like the cleansing ceremony in Xhosa culture. "Lobola", which means bride price, or dowry, is usually paid in live cows or money from the groom's family, and is still common today in southern African cultures.

  • San (also called Bushmen) are an ethnic group of South West Africa. They live in the Kalahari Desert across the borders of Botswana, Namibia, Angola and South Africa. Most of the 100,000 San people live in Botswana (around 55,000) but about 25,000 live in Namibia..The San have a foraging lifestyle based on the hunting of wild animals (usually with bows and poison arrows and spears) and the gathering of veld food. The fact they are hunter gatherers accounts for their nomadic way of life. Their lifestyle is particularly adapted to the hard conditions of the Kalahari Desert. They know where waterholes are located and carry water in ostrich eggshells. They drink water from roots and tubers they find by digging the ground. The San are intelligent trackers and know the habits of their prey. they hunt game of all size : mice, buffalos, antelopes, and even giraffes sometimes. They also eat various types of insects especially during the dry season.. Sans are part of the Khoisan language peoples (including the herding tribe of the Khoikhoi) who speak a language based on click sounds (consonants), made with specific moves of the tongue.
.Naming.Their is a debate about these people should be called as the term of San didn't used to be used by San people themselves as they didn't use to apprehend themselves as unified ethnic group. Indeed there is a various array of San subgroups. But this issue also arose because the words of San and Bushman (coming from the dutch word Bosjes Man) also have been used by outsiders (european settlers in particular) to refer to them, often with pejorative connotations..The different San language groups of Namibia met in late 1996 and agreed to use the general term San to designate them externally. This word was historically applied by their ethnic relatives and historic rivals, the Khoikhoi. This term meaning outsider in the Nama language (the language of the Khoikhois), enables the distinction between Bushmen from what the Khoikhoi called t

  • EXCLUSIVE: You ORCA look behind you, this incredible photo shows a diver seemingly just yards from a feeding killer whale. Norwegian teacher Svein Aasjord, 44, his wife, and three boys, live in a fjord called Kaldfjord, in northern Norway close to the city of Tromsø - 217 miles north of the Arctic Circle. As well as living in one of the stunning coastal inlets Norway is famous for, the Aasjord family also live in one which is a popular hunting channel for whales feeding on herring. Each winter millions and millions of herring feed along the Norwegian coast in rich cold-water currents. Heading north to meet them is one the largest gatherings of orca and humpback whales on earth ready to feast on the bounty. In open water the whales stand little chance against the fast-moving shoals of herring, but by herding the tiny fish into fjords the whales create hundreds of ‘bait balls’ trapping the fish at the surface before going in for the kill. Sometimes the Aasjord family’s local Kaldfjord can be literally full of herring and large numbers of orca and humpbacks hunting them. The action has been so close to the house that Svein has been able to take photographs from inside his own property. These stunning photographs are just some Svein has been able to take over the years, including some breath-taking shots of his friends SWIMMING with the hunting orcas. Svein said: “All the people that have seen that picture tell me ‘he’s going to die in the next moment’. “I shouted to my friend ‘look over here’, because I wanted him to be looking at me when one of the big males was behind him. The whale of course was not up for the diver at all, he was just up for air. “The diver is a friend of mine, he and his girlfriend are experienced divers, they are not professional divers but they dive all the time. “We shut off the engine, as I am very strict when it comes to not disturbing the whales because they are feeding and I don’t want to interfere with their live

Each winter millions and millions of herring feed along the Norwegian coast in rich cold-water currents. Heading north to meet them is one the largest gatherings of orca and humpback whales on earth ready to feast on the bounty. In open water the whales stand little chance against the fast-moving shoals of herring, but by herding the tiny fish into fjords the whales create hundreds of ‘bait balls’ trapping the fish at the surface before going in for the kill. Sometimes the Aasjord family’s local Kaldfjord can be literally full of herring and large numbers of orca and humpbacks hunting them. The action has been so close to the house that Svein has been able to take photographs from inside his own property. These stunning photographs are just some Svein has been able to take over the years, including some breath-taking shots of his friends SWIMMING with the hunting orcas. Svein said: “All the people that have seen that picture tell me ‘he’s going to die in the next moment’. “I shouted to my friend ‘look over here’, because I wanted him to be looking at me when one of the big males was behind him. The whale of course was not up for the diver at all, he was just up for air. “The diver is a friend of mine, he and his girlfriend are experienced divers, they are not professional divers but they dive all the time. “We shut off the engine, as I am very strict when it comes to not disturbing the whales because they are feeding and I don’t want to interfere with their live

  • EXCLUSIVE: You ORCA look behind you, this incredible photo shows a diver seemingly just yards from a feeding killer whale.
