Special Wildlife in Buffalo Springs
By Linda Tancs
Established as a protected area in 1948, Africa’s Buffalo Springs game reserve in Kenya offers wildlife viewing unlike other places. Specifically, Buffalo Springs (along with Shaba and Samburu) is home to two species only found north of the Equator: Grevy’s zebra and the reticulated giraffe, characterized by its brown-orange patches separated by thick, white lines. You’ll see them on game drives, along with a host of other animals. The best place for wildlife viewing is along the banks of the Ewaso Ng’iro River, where they’ll be drinking and bathing. Head there during the dry season from June to October.
