A non-hunter shares her eye-opening experiences on an African hunting safari and invites readers to reconsider what it will take to save Africa’s wildlife。
Waking to her husband’s alarmed whisper， “Honey， get ready to run” was never in Sue Tidwell’s vision of Africa。 Nor was skulking through the Tanzanian bush or lying terror-stricken as the cries of lions and hyenas cut through the walls of her tent。

As a non-hunter enchanted by African wildlife， traveling to Africa had been a dream of hers since childhood。 Her vision included photo safaris and sleeping in a secure lodge， not acting as a sidekick on her husband’s hunting safari。

Growing up in a deer hunting family， she understood hunting’s role in American conservation。 Still， the idea of hunting Africa’s exotic animals was deeply troubling。 Aren’t many species endangered？ Isn’t photo-tourism a better way to protect lions and elephants？

Her boots-on-the-ground view not only answered these questions and many more; it captured her soul and lit a fire in her gut， fueling a passion the opposite of what she expected。

Through stories of laughter， tragedy， and wonder – and over 90 pictures and illustrations -- readers will be immersed in adventure as Tidwell’s curiosity sheds light on the struggles and complexities facing the people and wildlife of rural Africa。 Whether an animal lover， conservationist， wanderer， adventurer， or human rights advocate， her unexpected odyssey will take readers on an eye-opening journey， arming them with the awareness necessary to conserve the spectacular animals of Africa。
