Sample Book Insights:

#1 We had to find a four-wheel-drive truck and a study area and accomplish enough solid research to attract a grant before our money ran out. We were exhausted from traveling, and before anything else, we needed sleep.

#2 We were determined to find a place that was far from human settlements where the predators had not been affected by them. We ended up in Maun, a village in the northern part of Botswana, where the waters of the Okavango River delta meet the sands of the Kalahari Desert.

#3 We made it to Maun, a village of reed-and-straw huts, donkeys, and sand. Herero tribeswomen had spread their lavish skirts on the riverbanks to dry, like great butterflies fanned out in a riot of reds, yellows, blues, greens, and purples.

#4 The Makgadikgadi Pans is a tract of remote bush veld wilderness more than 100 miles east and south of Maun. It is the remnants of an inland lake that dried up 16,000 years ago.
