The area also has a high concentration of predators, such as lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the elusive leopards.

You will visit Lake Magadi, a large shallow alkaline lake located in the southwest corner of the crater, which is one of its main features. Here, you can typically see large numbers of flamingos, hippos, and other waterfowl.
