The harsh sun sucks moisture from the landscape baking the earth dusty red during the dry season. During the wet season, you will experience dense bush and luscious high grasses.
Famous for its large elephant population, it is also home to zebras, wildebeests, giraffes, waterbucks, baboons, and impala. Predators include lions, cheetahs and leopards.
