Dag 20: Kimbilia Serengeti Camp Lobo

Home Biota: what is it? Animals Plants Mammals Birds Insects NL EN

We do another tour in the park at the Kimbilia Serengeti Camp Lobo. We mainly see lions, vultures and hyenas enjoying the meat of wildebeest. It seems that the lions killed a lot with four wildebeest for one day. But there are more interested people. Perhaps the hyenas themselves also killed a wildebeest.
