What's the first animal you see?
My traveling partner and I have a bet as to which wild animal we will see first on our safari...i say buffalo, he says elephant. We'll be heading to Luangwa River Lodge in Zambia for the first stop. Who's going to win the bet? What animal did you see first?

If your question is limited to those two animals, my money would be on the elephant.

If open to all animals, my guess would be on a puku or impala.

highly doubt it would be buffalo.

My bet would be an impala. Our guide says impalas are like McDonalds -- there's one every corner and everyone eats them
