  • Botswana is a landlocked country located in the south of Africa. For the most part, Botswana is flat with a few hills and around 70% of its land surface is covered with the Kalahari desert.
    This country’s history starts more than 100,000 years ago, when the first people populated the region. However, in the past few centuries foreigners controlled it and independence was only secured in 1966. Prior to declaring independence Botswana was known as the British protectorate of Bechuanaland.
    One year after they declared independence a huge area of diamonds was discovered at Orapa. Since then Botswana became one of the world’s largest diamond producers and it earns around one billion dollars a year from diamond mining. The official language of the country is English but almost all people speak Setswana and accept the culture.

    Again i have to compliment you for wanting to be so near the animals, and night time it would be hard to sleep, and those lions must have their stomachs full as they were sleeping , and if they start to growl just keep away, thank you again for this beautiful upload, Jerome from Florida

    You brought a lot of adventure to your selves and it was short lived, i live a lot of adventure here in America every day and things get worse economically every day as people get destroy every day becoming homeless,"" and how is that"? when people rental lease come up for renewal, they either pay a tremendous increase or move out, no where to go they become homeless, and as owners turn the apt.into condos.Jerome from Florida

      We don't feed lions in Botswana, outside of private reservations. But game parks have their animals roam free in Botswana

      Thanks for reply, when i was in the zoo i wait around for lions to get fed, and when they get hungry they wait for that meat of 6 pounds to be put into cage. Jerome from Florida

    Did you hear any lions roar at night? Once when I was at a zoo, I could hear a lion roar, and it was from pretty far away.

    • @GrowingUpWithoutBorders
      @GrowingUpWithoutBorders  3 роки тому

      Apparently you can feel your pillow vibrate when they roar. Thankfully we didn’t experience that. 😳I would have been way too scared.

    My fourth trip with you. Just started the video. Love that music, please post the name of the song/artist next time. Love Botswana! Most all US presidents, Bill Clinton, George Bush and others, not Trump, visit Botswana right after the election. Sort of like "you won!, so go relax for a couple of weeks where you're away from everything, and Oh! you'll be staying in a tent!
    I spent 10 months all around that area, Caprivi strip, Botswana and Angola. Just stunning.
    I must bring my family on such a trip. Thanks for sharing.

    • @GrowingUpWithoutBorders
      @GrowingUpWithoutBorders  6 років тому

      It says a lot about the country if all these presidents went there. We found Botswana to be amazing from the people we met to the landscape. It was really nice!

    It was hard to me when I went to my first third world country and saw the roaming of animals. The difference is these are lions and such the ones i saw were just mostly street animals lol. That elephant was incredible
