Book our 5 Days Kidepo National Park Tour to see elephant, Giraffe, Zebra, Eland, Hartebeest, Lion, Hyenas, and Cheetah, and perhaps Africa’s largest single herd of Buffalo roam rolling grassland that extends in all directions towards distant mountain ranges. Wildlife also includes species that are rare or absent from other Ugandan protected areas such as Aardwolf, Ba-eared fox, cheetah, Striped Hyena, and Ostrich.

Its isolation means that Kidepo is little visited and visitors can expect to enjoy a high degree of solitude. The maneless Zebra (Equus quagga forensic), is a subspecies of the plains zebra and was first described in 1954 by Tony Henley, then a Ranger in the Game Department of the Uganda Protectorate based in Moroto and in charge of Karamoja District. Spread over the northern parts of eastern Africa. It ranges in north-west Kenya, from Guas ngishu and Lake Baringo to the Kidepo Valley National Park.
