Jane, Ufiti and the Secrets Malawi Still Holds
Jane Goodall spent her life looking into the wild and uncovering secrets that others had never seen. But while Jane was studying chimpanzees on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, hundreds of kilometres south, another very unusual chimpanzee was making unexpected appearances in Malawi. Her name was Ufiti — and her story remains one of Malawi’s most intriguing wildlife mysteries.
From the forests and mountains to the extraordinary cichlids of Lake Malawi, this is a country that still has plenty left to discover. Africa hasn't given up all of her secrets - not yet.

Rhinos are more than their ecological role — they are part of Africa's story, its landscapes, its wildness and those unforgettable moments when a guide quietly whispers, “He's close.”
