A thousand (or more) things to see and do before I die

Hyena Feeding Frenzy
A hyena feeding frenzy. It was incredible to watch these predators/scavengers feeding on a hippo carcass. Apparently this had been going on for days. The hippo died of natural causes.
It was strange to see the other hippos just watching. I wish that our attitude towards death were this way as well. It is all part of the circle of life, one day you are on top of the food chain, and the next day, you are hyena chow.
I am a scientist by trade, but a nomad at heart. I invite you to experience the joys of what this planet has to offer through my adventures in terra incognita. I hope to inspire the uninitiated to roam free beyond the confines of cubicles and gilded cages. Carpe Diem! Escape the monotony and walk a mile in my shoes.
