Kenya

Tsavo

Tsavo national parks form the largest protected area in Kenya, divided by the Nairobi-Mombasa highway and railway.

Tsavo supports the majority of Kenya's elephants, great herds of buffalo, the rare Hunters hartebeest, the largest population of lions left in Africa, rare African hunting dogs, striped and spotted hyenas and the rare brown hyena.

Man-eaters of Tsavo came to prominence during the building of the railway at the end of 19th century when construction workers became regular victims of lions attacks.

Both parks are within easy reach of the coastal resorts which offer day and overnight excursions.
