Q1. Write A Travel Report For Armand Denis's Journey To Congo
Introduction
Purpose of the journey:
The main purpose of this expedition was to solve the mystery of the king of Ituri forest in
Congo i.e. Four-Tusked Elephant, to film it and to show everyone that this peculiar
creature really exists. In the beginning of this journey, many pygmies seemed to have
been so reluctant to reveal the real mystery of four-tusked elephant but later on, I was
supported by three older pygmies. I happened to have visit Congo several times as solo
independent scientist to conquest my dream and amidst my journey, I have been helped
by several people from Belgian settlers in indirect way to Mombeli in huge contribution.
Authorization:
There was no needed of approval from any organization since I came as a free
researcher who simply needed to explore on the spot and crack the quest of the four-
tusked elephant.
Discussion
Search of Four-Tusked Elephant:
It was so peculiar to see at whatever point somebody talks about the Four-tusked
elephant stays quiet trying to talking as though they were condemned to death.
Everyone appeared to be so hesitant and were not prepared to investigate the
Ituri woodland and see that animal. With three pygmies challenging than the rest,
I went for the pursuit of it and in the fourth day of our expedition, with trees
getting slim and land turning out to be more marsh and fresh dungs of elephant,
we forward our each and every steps so prudently to see this gigantic creature
however it was simply not more than elephant with two tusk. I returned back to
my country.
Search of Skull:
Upon some queries with locals of Butembo, I knew the location where Mombeli,
who brought four tusks to Xantos, actually lived and there he promised me to
bring the skull of four-tusked elephant in return of which I shall give him oil-
lantern, flashlight and watch. After four months of re-visit to Mombeli’s hut spared
nothing and soon after the time where I completely lost my faith after talking with
Renaud gave me the sudden sight of some white portion of skull in the ditch
whose stench was really terrible.
Conclusion
It was still insufficient proof to validate the existence of Four-Tusked Elephant for
me as a scientist because how we need to prove our ideas is by altering the
different situations and not only relying on single incontrovertible proof. The
mystery of Four-Tusked Elephant is still remained to be sanctioned.
Recommendations
My expedition to Congo uncovers about the life, the life of everyone loaded up
with ups and downs in various stages and how this spinning life will allow you to
encounter various things over seconds. Nothing occurs as per the arrangement
and we should be consistently prepared to adapt to the circumstance that
emerges accordingly. Being pleasant at your great times, being victorious over
certain deeds, having a few dreams satisfied are not only the scenarios that you
might undergo but what significant is that your strong determination over
achieving something and not giving up your hopes till the last second will
absolutely take you to your destiny.
