Also to be found in the Amboseli are herds of wildebeest, buffaloes, gazelles, and many other wildlife. Amboseli National Park stands out mainly for its elephant terrain and of course, for the presence of Kilimanjaro in the background. Although many more animals will be seen, as in all parks, what is most striking is the high presence of elephants. All the African Big Five (lion, elephant, rhino, leopard, and buffalo) are easily seen here among other wild animals such as cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, hyrax, dik-diks, lesser kudu, mongoose, nocturnal porcupines and many more.
