Kneel in the Namib

By Leon-Ben Lamprecht
Published 11 February 2010

You don’t need a Unimog to see the Namib; this half-day tour will get you up close and personal with the sand<br />and its inhabitants.

The dollar bush seed clamps closed when it becomes wet, to germinate later when conditions are ideal.

This horned adder hides in a dollar bush, and preys<br />on anything seeking shade. Unlike other snakes, its<br />eyes are on top of its head and not on each side.
