The Safari Lodge: Now Open!

We are pleased to announce that Safari Lodge, our new bungalow-style hotel, is now open!

These beautiful villas of straw-roofed buildings and elevated treehouse platforms were conceived by John Hammond himself for Jurassic Park, and it has long been our hope to recover yet more of his vision for Jurassic World. Not only does the Lodge allow guests to enjoy jungle life in comfortable accommodations, it also features an adjoining rainforest garden; rock-walled swimming pool and Jacuzzi; a Traders Outlet gift shop; and our new Bird Mimic eatery, which includes an extensive vegan buffet and salad bar!

But what could possibly make this better, we wonder? Oh, of course: dinosaurs! Specifically, a flock of Struthiomimus, an ostrich-like species related to Gallimimus and Archaeornithomimus. These lovely ladies can be seen directly from the balcony of the Safari Lodge, living peacefully in their garden-style habitat. Be sure to ask your concierge about guided walking tours into the enclosure!

Book your bungalow at the Safari Lodge today!

Another Rare Spotless Giraffe Found—the First Ever Seen in the Wild

The sighting occurred just weeks after the unusual condition was seen in a newborn giraffe at a Tennessee zoo. Is it more common than scientists thought?

— By Dina Fine Maron | September 12, 2023

Just weeks after a giraffe at a U.S. Zoo was born missing its characteristic spots, another spotless giraffe calf has now been seen and photographed in the wild for the first time.

The unprecedented sighting occurred at Mount Etjo Safari Lodge, a private game reserve in central Namibia. Tour guide Eckart Demasius saw and photographed the solid-brown calf during a game drive on the roughly 90,000-acre reserve, according to the Giraffe Conservation Foundation. Demasius, who was not immediately available for comment, shared his photos with the giraffe nonprofit.

Sara Ferguson, a wildlife veterinarian and conservation health coordinator at the foundation, says the two recent spotless sightings are pure coincidence and that there’s no data to suggest this coloring is occurring more frequently than it had in the past.

This finding is just another example of “the weird way the world works” she says, adding that she’s “so amazed and pleased there is so much more to learn and discover about giraffe.”

Genetic Anomalies

The spotless reticulated giraffe born at Brights Zoo in Limestone, Tennessee, earlier this summer was recently named Kipekee, which means “Unique” in Swahili. The recent wild sighting occurred in another giraffe subspecies found in southern Africa, the Angolan giraffe.

Before these recent births, a giraffe with all-brown coloring was last seen at a Tokyo Zoo in 1972.

Scientists, including Ferguson, believe the solid coloring is likely due to one or more genetic mutations that haven’t yet been identified.

Some aspects of giraffe spots are passed down from mother to calf, according to a 2018 study in the Journal Peer J, and larger, rounder spots appear to be linked to higher survival rates for younger giraffes, but the reasons for that remain unclear.

Derek Lee, a Biology Professor at Penn State University and a co-author on the PeerJ Study, says that technically these two recent examples are not spotless animals, but instead —"one-spot-all-over giraffes."

It’s impossible to say what this genetic anomaly means for the animal’s health, he says, but there’s no evidence the color difference puts the animal at a disadvantage.

“We have a sample size here of one, so time will tell what happens.”

Stretching from the Linyanti River all the way to Savute Marsh, the winding waterways of the Savute Channel have pumped life into the western section of Chobe National Park for many thousands of generations. However, this fickle and unpredictable channel, which has a fascinating history of flooding and drying up, independently of good rainy seasons and flood levels elsewhere, has mystified local inhabitants, geologists and others for many years. When David Livingstone, the first European to visit the area, saw the Savute Channel in 1851 it was flowing. Thirty years later it had disappeared and the Savute Marsh had dried out, remaining this way for almost 80 years. It flowed again from the late 1950s to the early 1980s, when it again receded, hence its reputation as ‘the river that flows in both directions’.

-----------------

Die gewundenen Wasserwege des Savute-Kanals, die sich vom Linyanti-Fluss bis nach Savute Marsh erstrecken, haben über viele Generationen Leben in den westlichen Teil des Chobe-Nationalparks gebracht. Doch dieser wankelmütige und unberechenbare Kanal, der unabhängig von guten Regenzeiten und Überschwemmungen anderswo eine faszinierende Geschichte von Überschwemmungen und Austrocknung hat, hat Einheimische, Geologen und andere seit vielen Jahren Rätsel bereitet. Als David Livingstone, der erste Europäer, der die Gegend besuchte, 1851 den Savute-Kanal sah, floss er. Dreißig Jahre später war es verschwunden und die Savute Marsh war ausgetrocknet und blieb fast 80 Jahre lang so. Er floss von Ende der 1950er bis Anfang der 1980er Jahre wieder, als er wieder zurückging, daher sein Ruf als „der Fluss, der in beide Richtungen fließt“.
