Shannon Wild’s Safari Essentials

Shannon Wild’s spirited passion for wildlife and the engaging way she shares it with others makes her one of the coolest and most followed bush personalities around.

Galavanting with all her gear means she has some handy accessories. She shares her 6 lifesavers.

“Looking into the night, I can see eyes staring back at me.
In the dark, something is moving. I am afraid, but I am also happy.
I have never been here before, And yet I feel like I have returned.
I am at peace.”

Built over an ancient elephant path, Mfuwe Lodge is renowned for its bountiful mango tree. Every spring, when the fruits ripen, an entire elephant herd lumbers through the lodge reception to gorge themselves on the feast beyond.
