Exploring a destination...

The joy of travel comes in exploring new things. Planting your feet somewhere you’ve never been before brings with it the rush of discovery and the joy of pushing back on the boundaries of your world.

But when one does arrive at that fresh frontier, there are ways better than others to begin your journey of discovery. Follow these steps and see the world with a new light.

• Discover a new city through a food tour. Food tour’s are the easiest way to take a tour, learn about the local delicacies, and the best of all, get great tips that aren’t just “local” tips for tourists, but sometimes, lessons for a lifetime too

• Use Public Transportation. When you are in a new city, you can possibly see places and people that you wouldn’t normally see when simply walking to the places that checks your list. Some buses or rails take you to parts of the city you wouldn’t get to see otherwise. Whilst using public transportation, just ensure that you are following the local norms and do remember to watch the locals!

• Find a local festival. Go beyond what other tourists might do while visiting a place. Look for the unique things you would want to do. Use social media or the local tourism website to find out what’s going on locally. You may have to move out of the center of the city to do some of the less popular but more unique things, so just keep that in mind!

Lion sighted in Chad national park for first time in nearly 20 years

By Tre'Vaughn Howard

April 21, 2023 / 8:57 PM EDT / CBS News

An image was released Thursday of a female lion in Sena Oura National Park in the Central African nation of Chad, the first such image of a lion in the park in "nearly two decades," officials said.  

The image of "a beautiful lioness, in her prime and clearly in great health" was taken by a "remote camera" on Feb. 22, according to a news release from the nonprofit Wildlife Conservation Society. 

A lion had not been seen in the national park in nearly 20 years, officials said, adding that the International Union for Conservation of Nature considers  lions to be "technically extinct" in the Sena Oura area. 

As a whole, the IUCN classifies lions as "vulnerable" on its Red List of Threatened Species. 

The governments of Cameroon and Chad have shown a commitment to conservation which has helped provide protection for national parks, the WCS said, and in turn has allowed wildlife populations to start recovering after a period of organized poaching more than a decade ago.

Last month, endangered West African lion cubs were caught on video in Senegal . The sighting of the three cubs has given hope that the revered West African lion population could be revived.
