Hippos caught away from water are dangerous just like people defending useless dogma and unflinching principles which harm instead of enlighten.
Elephants machine gunned to death. Rampage in Oslo. Fanaticism everywhere. So why travel in such an environment? World adventure travel lends inself to understanding. Fanaticism, whether it be religious, political or cultural is the byproduct of ignorance. Think what the world might be like if everyone who was convinced that they were "right" would just spend that determined energy on acts of charity. A friend of mine (actually a former student) said that her children fight for control of their newest Ipad while thousands of Somali children fight for fresh water and a morsel of food.
And on and on it goes....
