The only time we had armed guards on a Kenya safari was by the river for hippos. I was more scared of the grinning 17 year old soldier fingering the trigger on his AK and flagging everyone in sight.

IIRC the lions in Kruger National Park on the border have developed a taste for refugees. Tough business that.
