Images from Kenya 9: Masai Mara, the big 5

The phrase Big Five game was coined by white hunters and refers to the five most difficult animals in Africa to hunt on foot. The term is still used in most tourist and wildlife guides that discuss African wildlife safaris. The collection consists of the lion, African elephant, cape buffalo, leopard, and rhinoceros. The members of the Big Five were chosen for the difficulty in hunting them and the degree of danger involved, rather than their size.

Working in Kenya is not the same as working in Europe: peeling nuts, braiding sisal, preparing ugali… Ugali, I have seen it before, in Italy. There it is yellow and called “polenta”.
