Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Tanzania
by David ruiz luna

The Ngorongoro crater is one of the largest volcanic calderas in the world. The crater houses about 25,000 animals of very different species. It is considered one of the smaller areas where it is possible to see the big five, the five most representative animals of Africa: the lion, the leopard, the elephant, the buffalo and the rhinoceros (if the hippopotamus is included, then it should be enlarged the denomination to the big six). In addition, in the circle it is possible to observe, with a bit of luck, the exotic black rhinoceros, possibly the biggest attraction of the park.

giraffes lying down

It's not very common to find giraffes in this posture. In this case, they should feel very safe, because this situation is very dangerous for them. Any predator could attack them easily while they try to stand up.

by David ruiz luna

The impala is a medium-sized antelope found in eastern and southern Africa.

Active mainly during the day, the impala may be gregarious or territorial depending upon the climate and geography. The impala is known for two characteristic leaps that constitute an anti-predator strategy.

The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) classifies the impala as a species of least concern.
