ELEPHANTS UP CLOSE: WILD MANGOS CALL WONKY TUSK AND FAMILY 
EVERY NOVEMBER TO MFUWE LODGE - SAFARI ZAMBIA WITH BBC'S JONATHAN SCOTT


 

 
Mfuwe Lodge


SOUTH LUANGWA NATIONAL PARK, ZAMBIA (September 2, 2010) - The Bushcamp Company has a couple spots left to see "Wonky Tusk" and baby "Wellington" as they make their yearly journey to Mfuwe Lodge in search of wild mangos. These remarkably gentle local elephants meander through the lobby of the lodge happily and without incident for years. The spectacle has enticed BBC Big Cat Diary presenter, author and wildlife photographer Jonathan Scott to return and lead expeditions along with renowned Bushcamp Company guide, leopard & giraffe expert and former Luangwa park warden, Phil Berry. The safari is from the 3rd to the 10th of November, but hurry, spaces are now limited! For more info and videos visit www.bushcampcompany.com/elephants_in_reception.php and www.mfuwelodge.com.

ABOUT MFUWE LODGE
Mfuwe Lodge is an award winning safari lodge set in the most prolific game area of the South Luangwa. Giraffe, buffalo, antelope and crocodile are constant visitors to the lodge's lagoons. Elephants wander the lobby during mango season. 18 thatched chalets, each with its own ensuite bathroom, panoramic shower and covered verandah, allow Mfuwe guests to enjoy the African wildlife in privacy, and luxury. The lodge's BushSpa provides foot massages, hot stone therapy, jacuzzi and more, all within view of hippos bathing in the lagoons. Rates range from $ 295 to $ 445. For more information visit www.bushcampcompany.com/mfuwe_lodge.php or call +260 (0)216246041.

ABOUT BUSHCAMP COMPANY
The Bushcamp Company operates six exclusive bushcamps in the remote south of Zambia's iconic South Luangwa National Park, as well as the Mfuwe Lodge (voted Best Lodge in Zambia 2009) just inside the main park gate. Set out from any of these secluded, intimate camps and you are guaranteed an unrivalled wildlife experience in one of the last unspoilt wilderness regions of Africa - the very place where the African walking safari was pioneered. The Bushcamp Company was founded by Andy Hogg and Andrea Bizzaro in 1999 and is still run from its headquarters at Mfuwe Lodge by Andy - a Zambian who worked for many years at Save the Rhino Trust's Chinzombo Lodge in Luangwa.
