A trip in 2012, (camping in Moremi)I had 4 guests & 2 staff members: 
We were seated around the table, with me positioned at the center corner so I could see all the guests. The guests were facing each other.
At around 8:00 PM (Botswana time), just after we had finished dinner, a large elephant suddenly appeared and came straight toward the table. Everyone saw it and panicked, wanting to run away. I calmly said, “Please remain seated.”
As soon as I said that, the elephant was right at the table. It stretched its trunk, searching for leftovers. Its tusks were on both sides of two of the guests. If anyone had stretched out their hand, they could have touched its body, tusks, or trunk.
We all remained silent.
One of the staff members asked if he should hit it with firewood, but I said no. I explained that if he did, the elephant might feel threatened and try to defend itself.
After realizing there was no food left, the elephant left peacefully and disappeared into the bush. – by Obitseng Modise
