#63 - Ewan Kyle - Gorillas, Hippos, Frank the Elephant and Giant Tarpon

Ewan Kyle grew up inside a national park in South Africa. His parents worked for Nature Conservation. He did his schooling at home and in the time he should have been in a classroom he was out in the field with researchers studying crocodiles, gaboon vipers, birds and the big five across the greater iSimangaliso wetlands. He eventually found his way to guiding on the northernmost estuary in South Africa, and one phone call from Rob Scott at African Waters later, he was on a boat heading into the Ndogo Lagoon in Gabon for the first time. He didn't sleep for three weeks. That was 2017. He's been at Sette Cama ever since. In this episode Ewan walks Wade through one of the most extraordinary fishing and wildlife destinations on earth - the second biggest lagoon in Africa, where tarpon up to 90 kilos crash mullet, cubera snapper push 50 kilos, bull sharks patrol the shore break, and forest elephants, lowland gorillas, dwarf crocodiles and surfing hippos are just part of the walk to work. Including Frank - a very large, very angry forest elephant with a blind eye, a torn ear, and a personal vendetta against humans. Recorded on location at Sette Cama camp, Gabon, Africa.
