You step off the sandy track and into a wide, breathing bush: mopane and late-morning ghosts of mist from the Zambezi whisper through the grasses as your guide and park scout set the pace. The path is honest—soft earth, the occasional termite mound—broken only by spoor and the distant lowing of impala. For three hours the landscape moves around you; the white rhino grunts and the scrub calls your attention as you approach with the trained calm of the scout.
