Wildlife of Serengeti & Ngorongoro Conservation Area

This vibrant, informative guide showcases the diverse wildlife of Tanzania's Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Conservation Area. It profiles over 60 mammal species - from the wildebeest that migrate in vast herds to the big cats that lie in wait, as well as smaller species such as caracals, genets and bats. It also features 50 of the more common and charismatic bird species, 30 reptile and amphibian species, 10 iconic trees and a range of interesting insects. Stunning full-colour photos capture the essence of this popular game-viewing and birdwatching destination: the action-packed river crossings, evocative landscapes and African creatures great and small. This book is both a useful guide in the field and a valuable memento. The Serengeti and Ngorongoro Conservation Area, a UNESCO World Heritage site, are two of the world's most popular safari destinations, renowned for the annual migration of over 1.5 million wildebeest and thousands of zebra.
