Ngorongoro crater
Ngorongoro crater
The volcanic soil of the Ngorongoro Crater supports a wide variety of habitats, making it feasible to observe the Big Five in a single day. Lake Makat, also known as Soda Lake in Maasai, is located inside the park and serves as a haven for numerous species.
The park is also well known for the large number of Maasai families who reside in bomas with a circular shape. It is also essential reading for those interested in learning more about the history of human evolution as it is pioneered by the Leakey family.
Lions, buffalos, wildebeests, zebras, hippos, gazelles, jackals, foxes, and wild dogs, as well as ungulates, are among the animals that can be spotted. Elephants, cheetahs, leopards, and giraffes, animals that are rarely spotted near the crater rim, are among the absentees.
