Wildebeest

When Linda turned 42, her mother drove her scooter into a tree branch.

It wasn't too bad,

but when she heard that, she began to realize that each day could be her last.

Two days later, she started collecting everything related to elephants.

She needed something new in her life.

Her owl collection no longer interested her.

One, two, three, four... Wait.

Come on. One, two, three, four...

One, two, three, four, five.

No. One, two, three...

An elephant's skin is typically... Well.

Hm, that's indeed thick skin. Then, near their mouths...

What is that?

Filthy animals.

Troyer.

Listen to this.

Savannah elephants often sleep on their feet,

so they can run away quickly in case of danger.

Troyer, they're leaving without us.

Linda, the second jeep!

I'm sweating like a pig.

I hope he gets going soon.

Come on, Linda. Let's follow his trail.

I'll survive out here for years if I need to.

Is it going to take that long?

If we keep walking, we'll be back at the hotel by evening.

If we'd kept walking, we would have been back at the hotel by evening.

But Linda sat there much too long.

She sat there eating the only two Bounties we had.

All by herself.

Answer if you see this, Jurgen.

I'm over here.

By the fire.

Why isn't he answering?

Here, Linda. Liquid. Tuck it away safely. We might need it.

I want to go to sleep. I'm dog-tired.

Do you think we'll make it out of this?

Of course, honey.

No... No, Troyer.

Catch up, Van Goethem.

True or false?

Dung beetles can carry up to 860 times their own weight.

True?

False. 760 times.

My pocket knife is sharper, but it's in your pocket.

I'd like to see an elephant.

It hasn't got a compass, either.

Do you think anyone makes cakes shaped like elephants?

If so, I'd like one for my birthday.

Do you think those birds are showing us the way?

NO

I think I'm getting a sunburn.

Here.

A sharp twig.

In case anything happens to me.

All this walking is making me thirsty. - Have you still got that bottle?

That bottle of liquid I gave you yesterday?
