desert-like landscape that suddenly erupts into a green oasis filled with a kaleidoscope of incredible birdlife &#8211; this is the siren call of the wet season in southern Africa. But now imagine a few days before the start of the green season, and you have a wildlife and a land that is utterly desperate for rain.<\/p>\n<p>October for southern Africa\u2019s wildlife can be a harsh month (though it\u2019s the perfect time to visit for an action-packed and wildlife-filled safari). With no rain having fallen since around March, countries like\u00a0<a title=\"Zimbabwe\" href=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/ca\/zimbabwe\/\" data-id=\"1216\">Zimbabwe<\/a>,\u00a0<a title=\"Zambia\" href=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/ca\/zambia\/\" data-id=\"1217\">Zambia<\/a>,\u00a0<a title=\"Botswana\" href=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/ca\/botswana\/\" data-id=\"1215\">Botswana<\/a>, and\u00a0<a title=\"South Africa\" href=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/ca\/south-africa\/\" data-id=\"1214\">South Africa<\/a>\u00a0are gaspingly dry \u2013 and with temperatures on the rise fast, it is no wonder that October is often referred to as \u2018Suicide Month\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>With possibly one more month to go until the welcoming relief of the African rains, the question is, how do animals deal with the dry heat?

In October, when there is little water and the temperatures are increasing, hippos have a unique solution to keeping cool. They do not sweat in the traditional sense but rather secrete a reddish-orange liquid that essentially acts as a form of sunscreen, protecting the hippo from sun damage during the day\u2019s feeding. The Ancient Greeks used to think that hippos would sweat blood because of the thick red substance; however, a recent study discovered that the sweat is made up of two pigments \u2013 one red, which acts as an antibiotic, and one orange, which works as the sun blocker.<\/p>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n\n            \n<\/div>\n\n<div\n    id=\"wak-acf-block-236803\"\n    class=\"wak-acf-block wak-acf-block-spacer wak-pad-top-md wak-pad-bot-md wak-theme-light mobile-space-100 tablet-space-100 desktop-space-120\"\n    data-color-mode=\"light\"\n    data-theme=\"light\">\n<\/div>\n\n<div\n    id=\"wak-acf-block-266436\"\n    class=\"wak-acf-block wak-acf-block-standard-content wak-pad-top-md wak-pad-bot-md wak-theme-light wak-container\"\n    data-color-mode=\"light\"\n    data-theme=\"light\"    >\n\n        \n    \n    <!-- Content column -->\n    <div class=\"wak-sc-content\">\n        <h2 class=\"wak-sc-title wak-h2\" >Marabou storks embrace urohydrosis<\/h2>\n        <!-- Mobile image -->\n        <div class=\"wak-sc-img__mobile\">\n            \n<picture>\n    <source media=\"(max-width:575px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-345x345-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-690x690-f50_50.webp 2x\">\n    <source media=\"(max-width:991px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-600x600-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-1200x1200-f50_50.webp 2x\">\n    <source media=\"(min-width:992px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-600x600-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-1200x1200-f50_50.webp 2x\">\n    <img decoding=\"async\"  data-src=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-345x345-f50_50.webp\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-345x345-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-690x690-f50_50.webp 2x\" class=\"wak-radius-image lazyload\" alt=\"Marabou Storks Embrace Urohydrosis\" width=\"345\" height=\"345\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 345px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 345\/345;\" \/><\/picture>        <\/div>\n\n        <!-- Content -->\n        <div class=\"wak-copy-content-wysiwyg-container wak-body-standard-text\" ><p>Often called the ugliest bird in the world, there is no denying that the marabou stork is peculiar looking. It has a featherless neck, a pink speckled face, a large and fleshy pink wattle, and very long gray legs, which actually appear white most of the time. This whiteness on their legs is in fact a build-up of excrement. Marabou storks will defecate on their legs to cool down, an interesting cooling system called urohydrosis. As bird poo is mostly liquid, it works in the same way as sweat, through evaporative cooling. As the faeces dries on the birds\u2019 legs, heat is lost, bringing the stork\u2019s body temperature down. For marabou storks, the white also aids in further cooling by reflecting the harsh sun. This might not seem a hygienic way to deal with the heat, but it is certainly effective and necessary.<\/p>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n\n            <div class=\"wak-sc-img\">\n            \n<picture>\n    <source media=\"(max-width:575px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-345x345-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-690x690-f50_50.webp 2x\">\n    <source media=\"(max-width:991px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-600x600-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-1200x1200-f50_50.webp 2x\">\n    <source media=\"(min-width:992px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-600x600-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-1200x1200-f50_50.webp 2x\">\n    <img decoding=\"async\"  data-src=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-345x345-f50_50.webp\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-345x345-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915705\/31843_marabou_stork_rwd3-scaled-690x690-f50_50.webp 2x\" class=\"wak-radius-image lazyload\" alt=\"Marabou Storks Embrace Urohydrosis\" width=\"345\" height=\"345\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 345px;

After a cooling and cleansing bath, the elephants will then have a lengthy dust session or roll around in the mud, which helps protect their skin from the harsh sun rays. Using thermal cameras, biologists have recently discovered that elephants are also covered in \u2018hot spots\u2019. When elephants overheat, their blood supply is directed to these small patches of skin and heat is rapidly lost, resulting in a fine-tuned mechanism in heat regulation. These patches are scattered all over an elephant\u2019s body as well as in large areas on their ears, and they can even expand and contract depending on the air temperature<\/p>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n\n            \n<\/div>\n\n<div\n    id=\"wak-acf-block-333300\"\n    class=\"wak-acf-block wak-acf-block-spacer wak-pad-top-md wak-pad-bot-md wak-theme-light mobile-space-100 tablet-space-100 desktop-space-120\"\n    data-color-mode=\"light\"\n    data-theme=\"light\">\n<\/div>\n\n<div\n    id=\"wak-acf-block-710393\"\n    class=\"wak-acf-block wak-acf-block-standard-content wak-pad-top-md wak-pad-bot-md wak-theme-light wak-container\"\n    data-color-mode=\"light\"\n    data-theme=\"light\"    >\n\n        \n    \n    <!-- Content column -->\n    <div class=\"wak-sc-content\">\n        <h2 class=\"wak-sc-title wak-h2\" >Ostriches breathe deep and bare all<\/h2>\n        <!-- Mobile image -->\n        <div class=\"wak-sc-img__mobile\">\n            \n<picture>\n    <source media=\"(max-width:575px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-345x345-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-690x690-f50_50.webp 2x\">\n    <source media=\"(max-width:991px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-600x600-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-1200x1200-f50_50.webp 2x\">\n    <source media=\"(min-width:992px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-600x600-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-1200x1200-f50_50.webp 2x\">\n    <img decoding=\"async\"  data-src=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-345x345-f50_50.webp\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-345x345-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-690x690-f50_50.webp 2x\" class=\"wak-radius-image lazyload\" alt=\"Walking Ostrich in Africa\" width=\"345\" height=\"345\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 345px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 345\/345;\" \/><\/picture>        <\/div>\n\n        <!-- Content -->\n        <div class=\"wak-copy-content-wysiwyg-container wak-body-standard-text\" ><p>Instead of escaping the heat under shady trees or in waterholes like most animals, ostriches rely on their desert-adapted bodies to deal with the blistering temperatures. They use a unique series of cooling techniques called \u2018behavioural thermoregulation\u2019. These include baring their upper legs, flanks, and thorax to release heat, using a \u2018selective brain cooling\u2019 mechanism to manage the temperature of the blood going to the brain, and manipulating the airflow through their lungs to transfer heat through evaporation. Because of these adaptations, ostriches are able to live in the dry African savannas and deserts, withstanding air temperatures of up to 56 degrees Celsius without undue stress.<\/p>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n\n            <div class=\"wak-sc-img\">\n            \n<picture>\n    <source media=\"(max-width:575px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-345x345-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-690x690-f50_50.webp 2x\">\n    <source media=\"(max-width:991px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-600x600-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-1200x1200-f50_50.webp 2x\">\n    <source media=\"(min-width:992px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-600x600-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-1200x1200-f50_50.webp 2x\">\n    <img decoding=\"async\"  data-src=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-345x345-f50_50.webp\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-345x345-f50_50.webp, https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bis-images\/9999915706\/31844_singita_mara_river_wildlife13-690x690-f50_50.webp 2x\" class=\"wak-radius-image lazyload\" alt=\"Walking Ostrich in Africa\" width=\"345\" height=\"345\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 345px;
