WZ04 - Mfuwe Elephants
Travel & Adventure • 5m 30s
Each year at Mfuwe Lodge we have some exceptional guests that visit us, whole families of elephants have been regular guests at the lodge for many years, visiting between late October and mid-December to feast on the fallen fruits from the large Wild Mango (Cordyla africana) tree in the lodge grounds. The fact that a large safari lodge is built around this delicious food store is of no concern to them after all, why walk the extra few metres to go around, when there are some helpful steps and a tiled reception lobby to roam through each day? At least three generations of one particular elephant family have returned annually displaying the same unusual dining habits and unique behaviour.
