Thanks everyone. Emma, yes, I've been reading that too. Hope it doesn't happen! Ashish, thanks for the suggestion but still not sure how to refine my search.

Amazing! You are very fortunate to have seen so much of Africa. I read that they are planning to make a road thru Serengeti. If that happens it will change the Serengeti , All the efforts to save it!!
