Whatever You Do, Don't Run is a hilarious collection of true tales from top safari guide Peter Allison. In a place where the wrong behavior could get you eaten, Allison has survived face-to-face encounters with big cats, angry elephants, and the world's most unpredictable animals: herds of untamed tourists and foolhardy guides whose outrageous antics sometimes make them even more dangerous than a pride of hungry lions!
Join Allison as he faces down charging lions (twice); searches for a drunk, half-naked tourist who happens to be a member of the British royal family; drives a Land Rover full of tourists into a lagoon full of hippos; and adopts the most vicious animal in Africa as his "pet". Full of lively humor and a genuine love and respect for Botswana and its rich wildlife, Whatever You Do, Don't Run takes you to where the wild things are and introduces you to a place where every day is a new adventure!

The stories are mostly hit, occasionally miss. Allison seems to not have as much scientific knowledge of the animals and the land, or perhaps chose to forego that angle in favor of good campfire tales. Having been on safari in Botswana with a knowledgeable guide, I noticed that weakness. Allison on the other hand scored major points with me with his chapter on birding as well as the aforementioned elephant and President.
