Lion and toilet roll....
Hi all please dont try this one.
Mike uses a toilet roll to distract the lion.
I have seen guys do it with a blanket and toilet roll.

since you asked: stupid, pointless exploitation. Must be a Steve Erwin wannabe. You also can be assured there's an armed scout in the vehicle ready to take the lion out.
I'd like to know where he guides, cuz I'll be sure to stay away.

This is what comes into my mind:
<i><b>"I love wild animals. I'm gonna confront you, to entertain people, to provoke you to perform, to show how brave I am, to show how timid you can be and how superior I am. But really, I do love you."</b></i>
Sorry, not my sort of nature lover at all.

Bots,
Your clip says, Tsavo lions....so, was it in the Tsavo park and are these clips from new episodes? Unfortunately, his show is very popular on Animal Planet, India. His first two series was not as bad as this clip, although i do admit watching it for sheer entertainment. It's like watching a silly movie or sitcom......

I saw him in Khwai last year- what a total idiot, as far as the animals and the way he treated other humans as well. I was told numerous stories of similar incidents with guests endangered by his antics as well. Such as a female guest tied into the scouts seat (on the front of the vehicle), as he pulled the front of the vehicle quite close to a pride of lions. Absolute moron in my opinion!!! (can you tell that I wasn't fond of the "gentleman"???)

Knew this would get a you going...
Since the tv program he has terned into a bit of pre madonna.
This year in May as Moremi was closed to trucks as of the rains, he is the only guide(company) that decided that he will take his truck in.
Was supposed to get banned from Moremi etc but somehow managed to get his mobile licence back.
Mike is causing a lot of hassles as people comming on Safari expects the tv program to be a nornm for guides...
Whitch it is not.
It gives the wrong impression for tourist and some people have tried to get him banned in Botswana.
The prob is that the mad mike and mark show generates a lot of money and free advertisement for Botswana although wrong tipe.
