A parachute from hot air balloon brings team Bear to Masai country in northern Kenya, a savanna favorite with safari tourists. Bear shows how dangerous getting behind there can be, say as your vehicle breaks down, and how to survive and seek rescue. Starting on the arid plain, Bear treats his graze wounds with medicinal aloe vera, navigates by the sky and shows healthy respect for both elements, notably the scorching heath and a volcano, and the mighty wildlife, especially big cats, elephants, rhinoceros, and when he must cross a river the crocodiles and hippopotamuses which infest it. After sleepless -wild sounds haunted- night barricaded by thorny branches in a cave, he eats whatever he can find, and out of potable water, as even the river bed is utterly dry apart from stinking pools, drinks even the brown drip from elephant dung.
