With the lush marshlands, extensive savannas and open grasslands, Savuti in the Okavango Delta in Botswana is swarming with wildlife. Go on a game drive at any time of day, even in the mid-day heat, and you are likely to see at least a few animals – and most definitely a few elephants. The area is home to a massive population of pachyderms, and lions that have been known to take them down.
