The reserve is well known for its black-maned lions, abundant resident wildlife, and is one of the few places where it is possible to see the Big Five within a single morning game drive. Some cheetahs are so accustomed to vehicles that they seek shade beneath them during the heat of the day, while others may even climb onto the roof for a better view of potential prey. For bird enthusiasts, nearly 500 species have been recorded, including 16 species of eagles, numerous hawks and falcons, six species of vultures, eight species of storks, four species of bustards—including the Kori bustard, the world’s heaviest flying bird—and nine species of sunbirds.
