Lake Nakuru National Park also hosts the rare Rothschild’s giraffe, which was introduced to the park in 1977. Luckily, these animals have become accustomed to the vegetation type in Lake Nakuru National Park and have slowly become an indigenous park species. The lake's abundance of blue-green algae used to attract a vast quantity of flamingos that famously lined the shore.
