half way between the two parks. Dinner and overnight at campsite or lodge.

inhabited by more than 2 million large animals including more than a million wildebeest,
hundreds of thousands of plains zebras, and Thomson’s gazelles. Large predators including
lions, cheetahs, and hyenas are drawn to the area by this abundance of prey which migrate
throughout the park. Many smaller animals like rock hyrax, bat eared foxes, mongoose, honey
