 Kasanka a game reserve of 560 square kilometres on the southern tip of Lake tanganyika  has the greatest recorded concentration of mammal life on the planet. There is 2,500 tonnes of bat life there - the equivalent of around 500 elephants - hanging across an area of forest measuring the equivalent of ten rugby fields . .  Each year in November and December 8 million bats decend on the park and this is the aim of this trip- to see a bat or two.  Contact Sharron on 082 553 5258 for more info
