Laura stands guard as the warthogs walk on by seemingly innocent.Each of the three times we have stayed at the Chobe Safari Lodge Campground we have had our food bag torn into. This, we have found, is one of the hazards of camping without a car in Africa.
The campsite is surrounded by Chobe National Park. The animals are used to people not taking care to secure their food or outright feeding them.
We had some fresh food in bags we left on the ground near our tent since we had no car. This year the warthogs ripped one bag at one end in such a way as to leave that pocket unusable, but the rest of the bag ok.
The security guard told us the vervet monkeys had a field day with our bread etc.
We are simply taking a nap, don't mind us.
We moved the bags up into the small trees nearby and they were not bothered again.
