Michigan football goes on a safari in South Africa

The Michigan football team is having a blast and living their best life in South Africa.

On Tuesday the team got up at the crack of dawn and ventured into the wilderness to go on a safari!

One of the most amazing and exhilarating experiences of my life. I literally could have touched the lion out of our Jeep. Our guide had to tell @Coach_BenMcD @CoachJim4UM and I to shut up and stop moving because they were so close. Barely got these shots off #UbuntuBlue u303dufe0f pic.twitter.com/j2a7xjeXP7

Lions, giraffes, cheetahs, rhinos, zebras, and plenty more animals were seen by the team up close and personal.
