Or is there anyone else who occasionally goes on Google Earth and tries to find herds of animals running across the Sahara? It's surprisingly entertaining, like going on a safari at your desk!

Look for watering holes, fucking gold mines when you find one.

Try it when you're drunk...with a group of people.


Celebrations ensue when a herd is found!

This thread made it worth the venture to NSG. Best idea I've heard in a long time.

Have you actually found herds though? Or are you just trying to get us all to search for nonexistent animals?

The hot girls spinoff is a solid idea as well... I think I will be wasting a bunch of time doing this next time I drink with a group of friends.

Yes, I've found herds. When you get to a watering hole that has elephants, you'll know it. Works well in Google Earth because you can kinda 'throw' the map so that the earth rotates on its own, and you can scan in straight lines for a while. That's the best strategy I've found, but being drunk most of the time, I don't remember where the herds were, and the cycle continues.

people should just post up coordinates to sick stuff they fine, and let people go to them to see what they are.
