Masai Mara Animals: Check what Animals to Spot on Safari
There aren’t many black rhinos left in the world (they are endangered) but Masai Mara National Reserve has worked hard to repopulate them and keep them safe from poachers. Some people buy the horns for Chinese medicine, and poaching is a major issue. We got very close to the rhinos here and it was nothing but magical.
The best ways to enjoy the park's splendid animal scenery are to take a 4x4 jeep or guided jungle walk, the latter allowing visitors a chance to come face to face with elephant herds and observe other wildlife from the jeep's open top.
