Not really silly just unfortunate.

At the camp I stayed in on the Zambezi near the Bots and Namibia border lions used to come into camp some nights.

Actually they were systemically killing off the waterbuck herd that fed on the irrigated grass at nights and killed one buck only metres from the dining area and BBQ while people were eating there in the evening (this was a couple of weeks before I arrived).

So I sat out on the steps of my rondavel two nights for several hours and watched the waterbuck and bushbuck feed sometimes only metres away. No lions evident anywhere but some elephants one night.
(there was a very nice bushbuck there but I just missed out on an excellent photo one morning - he melted into the bush just as I positioned myself. The females kept feeding.)

Two tourists in sleeping bags - Sausage rolls for the lions.
