Primal Survivor (2016) s09e01 Episode Script

[♪]
HAZEN AUDEL:
This is wild Africa.
[♪]
It's the time during the day
when lions could just easily
be sleeping on the other side
of that bush in the shade.
I'm not at the top
of the food chain.
[♪]
Oh, wow.
Three-toed, big, huge,
heavy animal.
In this kind of environment,
you want to try to see them
before they see you, for sure.
[♪]
They're right there,
they're right there.
[rhino grunts]
Right there,
that is the black African rhino.
I would have never
in my entire life
ever imagined I would see
African black rhinos
in the wild.
So incredibly rare.
Wow, wow, wow.
This is incredible.
[♪]
[♪]
I'm Hazen Audel,
wilderness explorer.
I'm on a grueling solo journey
into East Africa's legendary
Great Rift Valley.
I've always known
that this place in the world
is a mecca for wildlife.
[♪]
As a biology teacher,
I've done a lot of talking
about this place,
and here I finally am,
in one of the wildest
places on Earth.
[♪]
Formed 25 million years ago,
the Great Rift Valley
is considered
the cradle of human evolution,
and it's one of the most
biodiverse places on Earth.
It's home to Africa's
most iconic wildlife,
known as the big five,
lions, leopards, rhinos,
elephants, and buffalo
walk these lands.
And I'm on a mission
to see them all.
This is a special spot
this special morning.
Look at that.
How many olive baboons
are there?
It's the nature shows
that I used to watch
when I was a kid
that got me so excited
about wildlife.
And right now, I'm living it.
My Rift Valley solo safari south
will be a 500-mile wildlife
journey like no other,
through some of the most extreme
environments on Earth.
I'll be tackling
windswept deserts,
towering escarpments,
massive lakes,
and deep gorges.
My ultimate goal is one of the
greatest wildlife destinations
on the planet,
the legendary savannas
of the Serengeti.
I specifically chose
this time of year
to begin this expedition.
I still have a ways to go,
but I've got to get
to essentially
what is the beginning of a race,
the beginning of, of a marathon.
The southern migration
is fast approaching,
when big animals start
to descend on the Serengeti
to eat, breed and give birth.
It's one of nature's
greatest spectacles,
and it's right where I'm headed.
There won't just be
tens of thousands of animals,
it'll be millions of animals
beginning a giant migration.
And if I time it right,
it's gonna be an adventure
of a lifetime.
[♪]
My first challenge is to cross
the notorious Chalbi depression,
a harsh mix of arid desert
and wind-blasted flatlands,
one of the toughest terrains
in all of Africa.
My target is Lake Turkana,
the gateway to
the Great Rift Valley beyond.
But before I hit the desert,
I need to find water.
Oh, wow, oh, wow.
Really.
So, I'm climbing down to
a potential watering hole.
As far as cliffs go,
woo, it's a doozy,
but doable, I'm pretty sure.
I don't want it to be
my last climb.
The rock is really crumbly.
Sometimes you just
have to believe.
[♪]
[grunting]
[grunting]
Alright.
[grunts]
Okay. These seem solid enough.
[grunts]
These will work.
Okay.
[grunts]
Agh!
Hoo.
Okay. Nice.
I've made it down,
but there's a problem.
The watering hole is dry.
[♪]
Buffalo, or it was.
This is an incredibly
challenging place
for any kind of wildlife
to survive.
So, it's just as difficult
for me as well.
Survival and death out here.
But there are still
some animals around
that are adapted
to these arid conditions.
[whispering]
There's some zebras down there.
Those are Grevy's zebras.
The Grevy's zebras can
survive for five days
without drinking water.
They're looking right at me.
They're different
from other zebras
in that they have
really big, round ears.
They're the biggest
of all the zebras,
and they're by far the rarest.
They have the very coolest
of the paint jobs.
We have different faces,
we have different fingerprints,
zebras have different stripes,
and that's how
they identify themselves.
Normally there would be water,
there would normally be
a lot more animals.
But since they're all gone,
this just gives me a heads-up
that I've got
some ground to cover.
If I'm to survive
my journey ahead,
across the Chalbi Desert,
I'll need to find water.
And my best hope rests
with the remarkable tribe
that call this desert home,
the Gabra.
Nomadic herders, they make
settlements in the sand
and find water
in the arid wilderness,
and they will be crucial
to my chances of making it
through the Chalbi Desert.
[♪]
It's all opening up here.
Wide open spaces.
Here goes.
As I reach the outer edge
of the Chalbi Desert,
the forest becomes
withered scrub,
and I hit the eeriest environment
I've ever encountered.
[whistling]
Can you hear that?
There's these
very bizarre trees.
[whistling]
Weird.
So weird.
This dead-looking forest
is singing.
The branches whistle
a haunting tune.
[grunts]
And I think I know why.
[crunch]
Okay, right there.
All these ants that are living
inside of their little home
inside a thorn.
They all have these
little entrance holes,
and they act like a flute.
So, it's got these branches
full of flutes
that wind up collectively acting
like a whole bunch of whistles.
And that's why this place
has that weird sound.
And oh, yeah, they're coming,
they're coming in force now,
and stinging, getting
in my facial hair.
The fire ants that hollow out
these thorns are feisty
and injecting me with venom.
Woo. Ah, ay!
The ants are
already getting me.
[whistling]
A whistling thorn acacia forest.
It's just a totally bizarre
natural ecosystem
in the Chalbi Desert.
No desert is the same, it just
depends on where you're at,
what kind of neighborhood
you're in,
and it's just
so totally bizarre.
[♪]
Leaving the whistling forest,
I now enter the desert for real.
The Chalbi was forged
by ancient volcanic activity.
A harsh expanse of
black lava rock is ahead of me.
[♪]
There's a stone corral up there.
Looks like it's
just recently built,
this is where
all the rocks were,
that they're building
this rock wall.
Yeah, it's all new rock,
so this isn't super old.
So, whoever is out here,
they have goats,
and they put them in
these stone corrals,
they keep them nice and
protected from the predators,
more than likely, hyena.
Turning this volcanic rock
to their advantage
must be the work of
the Gabra tribe.
This is a good sign,
it means people are around,
but I don't know how anybody
can make it out here.
But there are people passing
through here somehow.
[♪]
[grunts]
Whoa.
[hissing]
I just caught that
in the corner of my eye.
HAZEN: Can you see it?
Can you see that snake hidden?
It is a big, heavy snake.
Look at that.
Wow!
That is a puff adder.
It's highly venomous.
You have to make sure that you
are out of its striking range,
so I am being very cautious.
A monster like this is the most
dangerous snake in Africa.
Its Latin name
is Bitis arietans,
which means violently striking.
Puff adders can deliver
five times the amount of venom
needed to kill a human being.
When it was all curled up
and hiding,
you just didn't see it.
It is the quintessential
ambush predator.
They'll stay in a hiding spot,
just like over there,
for weeks on end.
The reason why they're
called a puff adder
is because they make that sound,
that puffing noise.
[hissing]
It senses me as a threat.
A snake like that,
it's concerning to see,
because I know that there
are a lot of puff adders
between right here and my way
to the Great Rift Valley.
I have to watch
every step I take.
[♪]
The Chalbi Desert is one of the
most extreme places on Earth.
In the local language,
Chalbi means bare and salty.
[♪]
And the air is bone dry.
[♪]
I need to find water,
and the only way I'll do that
is to find the Gabra.
Every single rock is trying
to get at my ankles.
With every step.
There ain't nothing out here.
Talk about no escape of the sun.
Sometimes it only rains
a quarter of an inch in a year,
and relentless dry winds
push temperatures
to over 100 degrees,
making this place
feel barren and dead.
[♪]
But then, up ahead,
I spot something.
It's a herd.
Look at this.
And people.
[Hazen speaks foreign language]
Hey! Hello.
[men shout]
The only people that are
around here are the Gabra.
Hello, baba.
[speaking foreign language]
Thank you.
[speaking foreign language]
Yeah, okay.
Thank you.
Got to brush up on my Gabra.
After a harsh trek,
it's nice to get a warm welcome
from herdsmen Wato and Barako.
Great, though, meeting people.
I was starting to get
desperate there for a while.
The nomadic Gabra
survive almost entirely
from the milk and meat that
they get from their goats
[goats bleating]
and in the middle of this
seemingly barren expanse,
a small community has settled.
Their ability to find water
sources out here is legendary.
This deep well is a lifeline
for the Gabra and their herd.
[men chanting]
Truly.
[men chanting]
Truly.
Taking it all in right now.
It's a crash course,
just trying to keep up
with everybody.
And it's
What do I say?
Sometimes you just
land into things
and you don't have all the words
to express yourself.
But this is magical.
These are the people I've been
looking for with water.
Over the years,
the Gabra have uncovered
deep springs in the desert
and built
a small network of wells,
allowing them
to survive and travel
through this
unforgiving landscape.
The magic word is "maji,"
that's water.
Look at how excited
all of the animals are.
Look at all these,
they've been waiting for water.
[men chanting]
There's only one way
to bring the water
they need for their goats
to the surface, hard work.
And if I'm going to
drink their water,
I have to do some lifting.
The Gabra use a unique
rhythmical song
to set the tempo.
[men singing]
It's a great assembly line.
The whole community
gets involved.
It's definitely tiring,
but the singing and the rhythm
just keeps you on pace.
The lifting starts
fast and relentless,
but there's soon a shift
in the tempo of the song.
[chanting, clapping]
Starting to really
slow down now.
Hee!
[men chanting]
We're almost finished now.
The song has changed.
[chanting stops]
Oh, yeah, yeah,
and we're done now.
And wow.
What an amazing experience.
Yeah. Asante!
Galatoomaa. Galatoomaa.
[♪]
Mmm.
The Gabra are a generous people,
and Wato and Barako invite me
to rest and eat with them.
On the menu, fire-roasted goat.
Nina njaa.
Means I'm hungry.
After the legs, after the ribs,
then it goes to the backbone,
and as you can see, there's
nothing goes to waste.
Just like that,
ready for the barbecue.
Boy, that fire is hot.
[♪]
When I tell Wato and Barako of
my plans to cross the desert
to the Great Rift Valley
on foot,
they do seem concerned.
There are dangers of
hyenas, snakes, pythons,
and you will get
hungry and thirsty.
There is no water, okay?
HAZEN: Okay.
This journey that
I am embarking on,
they've never heard
of somebody doing it solo.
The biggest danger is
running out of water,
running out of food,
and then the wild animals,
particularly in this region, hyenas,
which, yeah,
I don't like hyenas either.
But then the herdsmen give me
a vital piece of information
that could make all
the difference to my journey.
Yesterday people and camels
carrying household possessions
left for the lake.
HAZEN: Okay.
Just right where
the sun was setting,
go westbound, and I can
join them for a few days.
Sounds great.
The Gabra move entire villages
on the backs of their camels
to find new pastures.
And Wato and Barako tell me
that in the western desert
there is a camel train
heading to a new settlement
near my destination,
Lake Turkana.
If I can reach them in time,
I can travel with them
for part of my journey.
It's gonna be incredibly dry,
incredibly hot.
That's why they want to have me
join their camel train
for at least part of the way,
to get my way that much closer
to the Rift Valley.
By the looks of it,
it's gonna be a really
interesting day tomorrow.
Yeh, I want to try some of this.
Oh, it's so good! Yeah!
You just got to get your fingers
right in there,
and the fat
is still sizzling.
Finger-lickin' good.
Mmm. So good.
The herdsmen tell me there's
absolutely no food to be found
out in the desert.
So I need to take a ration with
me that's special to the Gabra.
When you're starving
HAZEN: What is this?
you can eat this
and cure your hunger.
You'll be able to travel a long
distance without stopping.
HAZEN: It looks like it's
primarily animal fat.
They were saying
if I really run out of food,
my last resort
is to dig into this.
But from the looks of it,
and the smell of it,
they said to definitely cook it
before I eat it.
This will keep you alive
on your long journey ahead.
[♪]
[people talking]
HAZEN: So, this is where I'm
spending the night tonight.
I think we're all enjoying
looking at ourselves
in the camera,
but talking a little bit
about the day today,
very long, very hard.
Uh, but what an amazing experience.
Tomorrow I'm gonna head out
on my own way.
They're wishing me luck
and I'm in their prayers.
[♪]
HAZEN: As soon as the sun is up,
I'm ready to go again.
But before heading off,
Wato and Barako give me
a Gabra totem,
a goat's-toe bracelet.
The goat's toe will keep you
safe during your journey.
When you meet other Gabra,
they will see this,
and know you're already
a friend of our tribe.
HAZEN: This is great.
Yeah, asante.
WATO: Asante.
HAZEN: Yeah.
[♪]
The journey ahead of me
across the Chalbi
is going to be long and hard.
[♪]
I still need to traverse
over 70 miles of brutal desert
to reach Lake Turkana,
my gateway
to the Great Rift Valley.
[♪]
My best chance of success
is to catch the Gabra
camel train.
But there's no guarantee
of finding them.
And these lands are hostile.
Oh.
Ah.
Yeah, I am not surprised
to find one of these.
It's always better
to find them first
before they find you.
Okay, there, there you are.
Okay, there, are you going
to cooperate? There!
I need to handle this particular
kind of scorpion
with extreme care.
It's a species of
thick-tail scorpion,
and its sting is
dangerously potent.
As a general rule,
the smaller, the more narrow
the pinchers are,
the more potentially dangerous
the venom is.
And then the other part that
makes a scorpion a scorpion
is that needle-sharp spur
attached to a venom gland.
Let me see if I can
flip it around
without the scorpion
doing anything crazy.
In a lot of ways,
they're record holders.
They're creatures
that can withstand
the very hottest conditions.
This scorpion is perfectly
adapted for the desert.
They can survive for
a year without eating.
They catch their prey
with those pinchers,
they hold it into place and then
with that, with that stinger,
it can look for the weakest part
of a body of their prey,
and then wedge that
poison-tipped stinger
right into their prey,
either paralyze it or kill it.
Breaks a hole into
the body cavity of its prey
and then sucks
the juices right out.
I love it when a scorpion
is being this cooperative.
I'm able to see it up close,
and I didn't get stung.
But I will let it go.
And there you go.
Yeah, you are cool.
[♪]
I push into the plains of clay
at the heart of
the Chalbi Desert.
[♪]
This barren terrain was once
the bed of an ancient salt lake.
[♪]
Now, dead flat and without
a scrap of vegetation,
this open expanse is
scoured by hot winds.
[wind rustling]
This wind just never stops.
You know, you think wind
cools things down,
but out here,
in this part of Africa,
it's just like having
a hot hair dryer
right against your whole face
all day long.
It's pretty hard on the lungs,
and eyes.
You've heard people say
there's no place to hide;
it's nothing compared to this.
[♪]
Way out and exposed
in the middle of the clay flats,
things get more serious.
I've got to try
to get out of here.
Oh, no!
Ahhh! Ahh.
[wind roaring]
[spits]
And just like that, just as fast
as it comes out of nowhere,
disappears again.
These so-called dust devils
are a swirling vortex,
traveling at up to
60 miles an hour.
Nobody got hurt,
just a little bit of itty grit
in the eyeballs.
Wow, just a force of its own.
And the dust just goes up
into the sky.
There's nothing out here
to stop 'em.
They just keep getting
more and more momentum.
That was a little one.
Big one would be
real bad, I bet.
[♪]
At last, a bit of vegetation.
I've made it across
the wind-blasted clay flats.
But just as I'm thinking of
settling down for the night,
I spot an ominous track.
You've got to pay attention
to the ground.
Hyenas definitely are here.
HAZEN: This is hyena poop,
that's real white.
That's a whole bunch of hair
and chunks of bone.
Hyena poop.
Because hyenas eat
every last scrap of a kill,
including the skeleton,
their scat of pulverized bone
is almost pure white.
You can see right here,
they look a lot like dog,
except with hyenas,
the front paw, it's really big,
and the rear paw is
hardly anything at all,
it's really small.
It's because with a hyena,
the way they're built,
all the muscle,
all the mass is up front,
so it supports
a lot more weight.
Mostly it's because of
their jaw and their head.
So, pound for pound, a hyena
has one of the strongest jaws
in the animal kingdom
because they have jaws
built to crush bone.
You don't want to get into
a tangle with a hungry hyena,
because with what
they're capable of,
they're quite capable of ripping
arms off, and, and worse.
They are around.
It's just too dangerous
to sleep out in the open.
The Gabra told me stories
of men going missing
and just their clothes
being found.
I need to make a plan
to protect myself overnight.
Yeah, this is
the biggest tree around.
This'll work out.
The safest thing for me to do
is to sleep up in a tree.
If you know anything
about hyenas,
they are horrible
at climbing trees.
So, yeah, this is the most
logical thing to be doing.
[♪]
There we go.
Woo!
[grunts]
There, good.
That's probably all I need.
Bed frame,
and this is, uh, rope.
Pretty strong, and in a pinch,
it'll work.
Oh, that was a good one,
love that.
Now just lay these sticks,
everything's
a little bit wobbly,
try to keep the sharpest parts
down on the bottom
and make kind of like
a cradle for myself.
Just tuck these in here,
and I'm done.
Kind of like a hammock.
I have slept in worse places,
but rarely are they this cool.
Okay, I think it's time
to get some fire going.
[♪]
I use my sandal,
that's how they do it.
These sandals, by the way,
this is what all the locals
are rocking.
They're made out of
recycled tires.
This looks like a nylon
eight-ply, all-weather radial.
I use these for walking,
but right now I'm gonna use them
to help me get a fire started.
Gonna crunch all this up
to get a fire going.
[♪]
My tire sandals are
a handy platform.
[♪]
Just go nice and slow
in the beginning.
And with enough friction,
I work to create an ember.
[grunts]
There we go, good, good, good.
Now, got to feed this.
Feed this, feed this, feed this.
You can see that ember, right?
It's growing.
[♪]
Okay. Yeah, fire!
Cool.
Good, good, good!
Yeah, woo!
Fire is up just in time
for nightfall.
I'm getting hungry,
and all I've got to eat
is the emergency ration
the Gabra gave me.
When I first saw it,
it honestly,
it looked like goat poop
covered in slime.
But now that I see it,
it kind of looks like
really, really dried
chunks of meat,
but it can go
a little bit rancid.
I guess it smells like
the butcher shop. Yeah.
And now, with these hot coals
just perfect,
put that meat on there
just like that
and that will cook just like so.
A fresh palm leaf
is my frying pan.
The plant's moisture
stops it from burning.
That is sizzlin'.
Okay, yeah, you can see that.
[wind blowing]
Om-nom.
Tastes like
tastes like the,
like the grizzle
on the side of a frying pan
after you get done cooking
your hamburgers and stuff,
and that stuff that's all
kind of like the scratchings,
I guess.
Got the last
little bits of it here.
Now I head right up there.
[chuckles]
Cool.
[♪]
Just a quick update.
The wind is howling.
[whooping]
There are wild animals about.
I hear things down there.
[whooping]
I wish you could see
further out there.
[whooping]
[♪]
HAZEN: That was not that bad.
[♪]
I actually liked it.
Back on the ground,
I can see what was
prowling around
underneath me just last night.
There are some tracks here.
Hyenas definitely are here,
and they were here last night.
I'm glad that I was sleeping
in a tree last night.
I take a very precious swig
of water before I head out.
My supply is running low.
I need to find
the Gabra camel train
or things could
become desperate.
[♪]
And in the shade of a tree,
I spot a promising lead.
I'm seeing it all right now.
This right here is camel scat,
it seems dry,
but that's just
the nature of camels.
They can squeeze every
little bit of moisture
out of their food.
This is so fresh right here
that there were camels
that were parked here.
And I can see
people footprints as well.
I am on the right
camel scat track.
This is great.
Best sign I've seen so far.
I am, I am on track.
[♪]
I'll need to move quickly
to catch the camel train.
Missing them now
isn't an option.
[♪]
But a major obstacle
stands in my way.
[♪]
This is where the terrain
really gets not nice.
This was all volcanic lava,
this was all liquid.
You can see where
it came out of the ground,
it just like, pbbbt!
And then just squished
and flowed out that way,
and then it couldn't
go anywhere,
and then it just
stayed in time.
It's like you can
pick up this rock,
and here you can see where
once it was just liquid
and just, wcchhht,
squished apart,
like taking a cheese pizza,
except it just stays as these
razor-sharp pieces of rock
that just crumble right,
right under your feet.
And it's as dark as it gets,
so it's as hot as it gets,
and it's just like hell.
[♪]
The black lava soaks up
the sun's heat,
making it baking hot.
[♪]
Picking my way across it
is sapping my energy
and costing me precious time.
[♪]
But finally, I make it through.
With the lava field behind me,
I'm picking up pace.
This must be the desert passage
the Gabra nomads use.
Although the camel train
is still nowhere in sight.
[♪]
But just as I was
giving up hope,
on the horizon
Thank God.
Honestly. Thank God.
[speaking foreign language]
HAZEN: There they are.
I got them.
It's the camel train.
[camel bellows]
[man shouting]
Hello, how are you?
You have been given
a goat skin bracelet!
You are a son of the Gabra!
HAZEN: Yes!
Okay, good, good!
HAZEN: So, this is
the camel train, look at how
It's amazing.
Wow, I cannot believe
I found it.
This is
This is how the Gabra travel.
HAZEN: spectacular!
What's your name?
My name is Kara Elema.
HAZEN: Kara Elema. Kara Elema?
KARA ELEMA: Kara Elema.
HAZEN: He is the leader of
this whole community here,
and the leader of this caravan,
this big train of camels.
Water! Oh, my god.
Thank you.
[camel bellows]
Meeting up with these nomads
is a lifesaver.
[camel bellows]
But we've all still got
quite a journey ahead of us.
[camel bellows]
Look at this.
All of this that you see right
there, the twigs, the materials,
the baskets, this is
everything that they own.
This is the, this is
the moving truck right here.
[camel grumbling]
The Gabra go to
extraordinary lengths,
traveling for weeks at a time
[camel bellowing]
moving entire settlements
across the desert
in search of new grazing grounds
for their herds.
[bellowing]
They're moving to bigger,
better pastures.
But it's all about being hopeful
because it hasn't rained here
for so, so long.
So as spectacular
as this whole event is,
this is an event
out of desperation,
and yes, there are smiles,
because people, there is hope
that life will get better
once they get
to their destination.
[grumbling]
[♪]
[bellows]
At last, we arrive.
Talk about a long day.
Everybody's excited to be here.
[grumbling]
It's time to unload
and set up camp.
[goats bleating]
And it's the woman's job
to construct their homes
all from the materials
that they've been carrying
on their camels.
[women talking]
Alright.
It's hard for me to not just
give a helping hand,
but in Gabra culture
it's only the women
that are to be
building the house.
There is a Gabra saying that if
you don't find yourself a wife,
you won't find yourself a home.
All those sticks and
all the building material
that was on top of a camel
is all being assembled
to make a house.
After a while,
they start to look like this.
That's a finished house.
To celebrate our arrival, I'm
offered a quite special drink.
Coffee beans
fried in goat butter
and then floated on top
of camel's milk.
It's a very sweet, oily,
highly dark roast coffee.
It's a new one for me.
Where else are you gonna get
a coffee made like this?
They have a great crunch,
kind of like
a caramelly-flavored charcoal.
And, um, yeah,
you just crunch it up,
it's supposed to be good
for the teeth.
They say it just,
like, scrubs it in,
and that's what
everybody's doing.
You get kind of a carbon scrub
when you're all done.
They have it all figured out.
Thank you very much.
Thank you. [chuckles]
What an honor, you know.
As we chew on roasted coffee,
the elders huddle together
and offer me a blessing
for my adventure into the wilds
of the Great Rift Valley.
[man speaking foreign language]
[group chanting]
They're just giving me
their best wishes they can
and their blessings.
I'll never forget them,
that's for sure.
HAZEN: Galatoomaa.
MAN: Galatoomaa.
HAZEN: Now some of the men are
getting together and singing.
This is their
nightly entertainment.
It's about the happiness
of being together,
and if it keeps them
this happy, I'm game.
There's a lot to learn
from these people.
[men singing]
[♪]
The next morning, I'm up early.
The Gabra have set up home here,
but I've got to move on.
And my friends have pointed me
in the right direction
towards Lake Turkana,
my gateway into the Rift Valley.
[♪]
I've made it across
the wind-blasted expanse
of the Chalbi.
After days in the flat
dust bowl of the desert,
a climb up high will help me see
the incredible landscapes
and challenges
Yoo!
I still have ahead of me.
[♪]
Just one last push.
Wow!
There it is.
I knew it was big, but I didn't
know it was that big.
That is Lake Turkana.
Finally.
Look at all that water
for as far as you can see.
And over there, the entrance
into the Great Rift Valley.
A world that
I'm about to explore.
Okay, Great Rift Valley,
here I come.
For the next leg of my journey,
I will need to scale
a mighty escarpment
Looks like it gets steep fast.
and drop down into
the Great Rift Valley itself
You got to know exactly
where to put your feet.
on the trail of an elusive
herd of migratory elephants.
[whispering]
I see 'em.
[elephant groans]
They are here. Wild elephants.
This is really special.
