The Wild Life of the Masai Mara Wildlife
A Masai Mara wildlife tour is a wonderful way to observe African animals at their finest. Discover what species can be encountered on this reserve.
(firmenpresse) - The Masai Mara is an independent nature reserve located in the Great Rift Valley, and is one of the most famous and wildlife-rich in Africa. The animals are free to roam both inside and outside the park, with some developing a synergetic relationship with the Masai people, as they travel around or through the local towns and villages.
This reserve is the ideal location to embark on a dedicated wildlife tour, with an immense variety of animals to observe throughout the surrounding landscape. There are numerous types of terrain, which enables a host of species to live harmoniously together and enjoy the beauty and bounty of the reserve.

Buffalo: Often found in large herds, buffalo spend most of their time grazing on the plains. Though seemingly serene when eating, this animal is very territorial and protective of others in the group
Rhino: Encountering black and white rhinos is becoming increasingly rare as they are endangered, but the Masai Mara is home to a small number of these magnificent beasts. Both species have two horns, which are using during fighting and mating.
Leopard: The best time to spot these elusive big cats is either in the early hours of the morning or late at night. In daylight, the Leopards will be camouflaged in the surrounding undergrowth and are most likely to be alone.
Other Animals
In addition to the Big Five, many other African animals make this spectacular landscape their home. These include the Blue Wildebeest, Burchell
