Enroute From Narobi in Kenya to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe we travelled... and these photos are just some random ones taken along the way that don't really have a home in any of the other categories. |
Ngorongoro Crater Ngorongoro crater is the largest unbroken caldera in the world. The crater (610 meters deep and 260 km squared) is a microcosm of East African scenery and game. There are 25,000 larger animals within the crater itself, mostly Zebra and wildebeest. However, this is undoubtedly the best place to see black rhino in Tanzania as well as prides of lion that include the magnificent black-maned males. There are the colourful flamingoes and other varieties of water birds to be found around the salt lake on the crater floor. More than a 100 species of bird not found in the Serengeti National Park can be found in the crater. Other game found within the crater are the leopard, cheetah, hyena, elephants, warthog, impala, buffalo, hartebeest and members of the antelope family and smaller mammals.

Serengeti National Park Covering 14,763 square kilometers the park is Tanzania's largest national park. The park is the centre of the Serengeti ecosystem. Roughly defined by the annual wildebeest migration, the Serengeti ecosystem is expansive - an area of 23-30,000 square kilometers. It is the combination of Serengeti National Park with its buffer zones Ngorongoro Conservation Area, four Game Reserves, one Game Controlled Area and Kenya's Masai Mara National Reserve - that protects the largest single movement of wildlife on earth. |
