The enclosed nature of the crater has created an ecosystem all of its own, resulting in some of the best opportunities to spot game. It also has the densest known population of lions, buffaloes, elephants, leopards, and rhinos can also be seen here, in addition to a host of other well-loved African classics like the ostriches, zebras, cheetahs, wildebeests, gazelles, and even hippos.
