Summary

Back when The Old Naturalist wasn't so old he took more than a few trips to Africa. One trip took him to a cave in western Kenya. Little did he know he was risking his life exploring this underground world that had served as a salty oasis for a plethora of animals including elephants for eons. Listen in to see what could have been a scary end for this wise-cracking adventurer.
