Watching Elephants from boat on Chobe River.

Chobe is known to have the highest concentration of Elephants on the African continent. But why is the Elephant population so large in Chobe? The answer lies in human conflict and the liberation struggle in Africa. The Elephant herds sensing the danger adjusted their migration patterns to stay in the safe haven on the Botswana side of the river.
