Safari Guide (Mid-Level): Core work — tracking wildlife on foot and by vehicle through unpredictable African bush, managing guest safety around dangerous game, and delivering expert ecological interpretation — happens in unstructured wilderness environments where no AI or robot can operate. Strong licensing requirements, life-safety liability, and deep cultural trust reinforce protection. Safe for 15+ years.
