Lions

It is common to spot lions or other predatory animals in Tanzania wildlife parks. Throughout the year the lions roam the parks in search of prey or shade. Tanzania is known to have a healthy population of lions, lionesses and cubs. The best time to spot the predatory animals is during the dry season. During the summer months between April to June, the animals stay near the river banks. This is when you can spot most of them.

Elephants in Tanzania are a very common sight and a part of the “Big Five” club. Each wildlife park or forest reserve has an abundant population of elephants. The mighty animals are very friendly and usually and are a good sport. During a safari you can even get up close to an elephant. These elephants are usually seen walking in small groups or contained in a particular area.

Giraffe is a very friendly animal and they are very easy to be spotted during safari, known for they are known for their long neck and brown spots. It is an herbivore animal and thus, you can try your luck at feeding a Giraffe. Recently, the Giraffe population has seen a downfall and the animal species are now endangered.

Rhinos have been an endangered species for quite some time now and they are very rare to see. These animals occupy various habitats, like the dry forests, thickets, savannas, open plains, and sparse thorn scrub. They’re typically ill-tempered and unpredictable and may attack whatever’s unfamiliar to them.

The best time to spot this breed of cattle is during the months of June and July. During January and February, the Wildebeests settle down in a particular area for calving season.
