When it comes to safaris, the Big 5 tend to capture all the attention—and most travelers expect to be dazzled by Africa’s famous megafauna. But there’s a whole host of African wildlife that’s less well known and less likely to be a safari focus…yet just as intriguing! Expedition Leader Matt Meyer is with us to reveal seven of those charismatic creatures...and you’re likely to think of them that way once you get to know them! Guides share a collective passion for spotting the Secret 7, and so will their guests when they learn about how cool these critters are. Matt introduces us to the serval, pangolin, aardvark, civet, large spotted genet, porcupine (yep—in Africa), and the African wild cat. Each is an important species in its own way, and all are the focus of conservation efforts. After more than 15 years in the field, Matt has been lucky enough to view all of these typically hidden animals—but it’s a tougher task for his guests. Find out why as you learn about them in today’s webinar.
