Game hunters first classified the big five as “hunt or be hunted.” These were the most dangerous game to hunt. These days, most safari shootings are done with a camera, and the big five are the most popular animals to photograph. It isn’t impossible, but planning a safari trip that would give you the best chances to capture all five in one trip is tricky. For us, it took two.
Here are our favorite big five photos from our two recent safari experiences in Kenya and South Africa:
1) Lion
2) Rhinoceros
3) Elephant
4) Leopard
5) Buffalo
