Show Notes
In this episode Gerry and Johan tackle the messy world of wildlife guiding ethics and social media drama. They discuss guides posting dangerous animal encounters for likes, the problem with calling each other out online, and why some people seem obsessed with pushing boundaries just to create viral content. From wild dogs biting clients' shoes to elephants walking inches from tourists, they break down where the line should be drawn and question whether the constant finger-pointing is actually helping anyone. It's a raw conversation about responsibility, privilege, and what safari experiences should really be about.
