The Bots side of the border is a photographic concession, there's no hunting in Wankie and the animals know that. We saw the bull I ended up shooting on one of the first days of my hunt. He was standing in Bots drinking out of a puddle left over from some late rains. About a week into my trip, the water dried up. First, a herd of about 200 buffalo came across the boundary making a bee-line for a big pan. The elephant bulls started coming across a few days later.

You should be in for a good trip. I can't wait to see the pictures!
