About this book

Mark and Delia establish a wildlife research project in Botswana's Central Kalahari Desert, far from roads and regular supplies. Their account describes observing lions at close range and the difficulties of living in an isolated environment. Scientific work and daily survival meet in a memoir of learning animal behavior while managing heat, scarce water and distance from outside help.

About the author

Mark Owens

Deception Valley, in Botswana's Central Kalahari Game Reserve, had no road running to it and the nearest settlement was eight hours away. Mark Owens and his wife Delia Owens drove in during 1974 with a third-hand Land Rover and stayed close to seven years, studying brown hyenas, jackals and desert lions that had barely encountered people before.
