WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T RUN!

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 behaviour 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 will take you to where the wild things are and introduce you to a place where every day is a new adventure!

In 1994 Australian-born PETER ALLISON set off for a year-long stay in Africa. More than a dozen years and hundreds of adventures later, he’s still leading safaris and collecting stories. Allison’s safaris have been featured in National Geographic, Conde Nast Traveller, and on television programs such as Jack Hanna’s Animal Adventures.
