Tracking African Animals with Game Ranger and Bush Guide, Brad Lourens.

from The Trail Less Traveled

Brad Lourens grew up in Port Elizabeth, in the Eastern Cape of South Africa. As a child, he spent most of his free time at the ocean and during the holidays he would spend time in the bush with his father. He was a part of the Junior Honorary Rangers, where he would assist rangers in the parks. He studied to be a guide in 2007. As a level 2 trails guide, he often takes clients out on game walks where he often gets close to the Big Five. Brad works as a game ranger/guide in the most famous of the private game reserves near Port Elizabeth. Shamwari is a 70km2/27mi2 conservation project with the Big Five and, like Addo, five of South Africa’s eight biomes. (Nama Karoo, Succulent Karoo, Fynbos, Forest, Thicket, Savanna, Grassland and Desert) Guests can visit the Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre and Born Free Big Cat Sanctuaries and choose between six luxurious lodges and the Explorer Camp. Swapping four wheels for a walking safari, the Explorer Camp comprises three tents, an outdoor bathroom and a plunge pool on a plateau amid basalt and granite extrusions. Hosted on Acast.
