I’M A Celebrity ... Get Me Out Of Here! host Dr Chris Brown shares the beauty and majesty of wild Africa as he takes a break from filming the reality show on Channel Ten.

Dr Chris doesn’t seem like he needs getting out of anywhere as he gets up close and personal with some of the South African locals.

From elephants marching the wide plains to leopards stalking jungle paths the TV vet has certainly fallen in love with the picturesque setting.

Dr Chris and his co-host Julia Morris don’t have to worry too much about traffic jams as they wander to work on the back on an elephant: “While we could walk, this is how @Ladyjmo and I insist on getting to work each day,” he posted.

“What happens when a leopard runs through the @ImACelebrityAU camp? This guy appears. And he's not packing cat treats.”

Brown never ceases to be amazed by the incredible scenery he comes in contact with: “For most people, a lion or a giraffe is their favourite African animal. For me though, this beetle is right up there. The sight of a large ball of poo rolling down the road thanks to this dung beetle pushing it with its back legs never stops amusing me. Every metre or so, she'll stop, climb up and readjust her course. Eventually once she's got to her destination, she'll lay her eggs inside that well travelled ball. Amazing”
