Masai Mara Game Reserve

The Masai Mara National reserve of Kenya covers more than 400,000 acres and is situated between 4,900 and 6,890 feet above sea level. It is part of the Serengeti ecosystem that extends from northern Tanzania into southern Kenya. Around the Masai Mara National Reserve there are several "group ranches" or ancestral wildlife areas owned collectively by the Maasai communities.

The Masai Mara region is considered the jewel of African wildlife. It is also a prime area for ornithologists and hundreds of different species have been recorded. The area is teeming with herbivores that, in turn, support large numbers of predators. Millions of wildebeest, gazelle, zebra, buffalo, impala, topi, hartebeest, giraffe, eland, elephant, dik-dik, hippo, and warthog live their natural lifecycle alongside the largest population of lions in Kenya together with cheetah, leopard, hyena, and jackal. The Mara is also one of the best wilderness areas in Africa to observe rare species like the rhino and the bat-eared fox or the nocturnal wildlife, from the bushbaby to the genet.
