In this national park, herds of up to 300 elephants scrape the waterless riverbed for alternative streams, while nomadic wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, impala, gazelle, hartebeest and eland mass in the decreasing lagoons. It has the highest concentration of wildlife outside the Serengeti ecosystem—a smorgasbord for predators—and is one of the few places in Tanzania where dry-country antelope such as the stately fringe-eared oryx and the peculiar long-necked gerenuk are regularly seen. It is the only national park that holds migrants during the Dry season and provides a welcoming home to different species of animals.
