Movie Reviews of Eternal Enemies
Movie Review: Background information about where it was filmed
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the best wildlife documentaries I've ever seen. I will not repeat the good reviews that other people gave to it. Instead, I will share a few of my personal experiences that I had when I visited the place where it was filmed.
My wife and I visited Botswana in 2003. While two of the camps at which we stayed were in the Okavango Delta, a third (Duma Tau) was up at the North end of Botswana near the Caprivi Strip which is a piece of Namibia that reaches out to touch Zimbabwe. It is near here were the Linyanti River once flowed and changed its course, perportedly due to some seismic event. The Savuti Channel is the dry river bed where the Linyanti once flowed. This is where "Eternal Enemies" was filmed. The safari vehicle drives you along the depresseion that was its river bed. You can see trees lining what used to be the banks of the river and low vegetation grows down in the channel. There are many stories going on at once, something that might be only guessed at in the national geographic special but you have to go there to experience it all for yourself. We saw a pair of huge ground hornbills walking around looking for small prey in one direction while a spotted hyaena in another direction shadowed a cape hunting dog in hopes that he might steal whatever he found. A flock of carmine bee-eaters escorted our vehicle to capture the grasshoppers and other insects scared up by its tires. We later saw a flock following an elephant using it for the same purpose. We came around a corner to find a family of bat-eared foxes sunning themselves. They went just out of view when you put enough of the isolated shrubs between you and them. No doubt they could easily detect a lion with their enormous ears who might try to sneak up on them. All around us there were countless soap operas going on at once; too many things to pay attention to them all. Simply an amazing place. When we got back to camp, we had to wait fifteen minutes because a large bull elephant was feeding on a tree at precisely the spot where we were supposed to disembark. We then had to follow this elephant down our foot path because he wanted to feed on the trees just outside our bungalow.
