Cape buffalo
Marty’s photos of the day #4558: Cape buffalo, considered by many to be the most dangerous animal in Africa (after humans, of course). (Photographed in Zimbabwe)
Three-banded courser
Marty’s photo of the day #4453: Shhhh! I’m following a three-banded courser through the bush in Zimbabwe. Great camouflage, eh?
Warthog photography

Marty’s photo of the day #4330: This is the Zambezi River. Zimbabwe is on the near side and Zambia is on the far side. In between—lots of hippos!
Here, snaky, snaky!
Marty’s photo of the day #4325: This is me, demonstrating my snake-calling skills, with an African rock python in Zimbabwe.
Armored bush cricket
A leopard in the dusk
Marty’s photo of the day #4308: That time when you’re in the African bush after sunset and you feel something big is looking at you. I photographed this leopard in Zimbabwe. It was quite dark out, and I really had to push my camera to create this image.

A dazzle of zebras

Mother and baby elephant

The other hippo story
Marty’s photo of the day #4230: Via both my first book, Cool Creatures, Hot Planet: Exploring the Seven Continents, and my college show, Around the World in 90 Minutes, the hippo attack Deb and I survived on the Zambezi River in Zimbabwe (the hippo bit through the center of our canoe and lifted us six […]
