The 8 Days South Sudan Tour - Southern National Park safaris expedition takes you to Southern national park in the town of Rumbek. This huge Southern National Park was reported at one time to have large herds of Nile Buffalo, grass that reached 2 meters high, Island ecosystems supporting monkeys.
The Southern National Park is enormous being roughly 7,800 square miles (4,992,000 acres) or 20,194 square kilometers (2,019,400 hectares). The Southern National Park was created in 1939 when the area was part of Anglo-Egyptian Sudan. The River Sue creates the western boundary of the park, which eventually turns into the Bahr el Ghazel as it passes through Wau. The River Ibba flows through the center of the Southern National Park and the River Gel flows through the eastern part of the park. In 1949 a report about the park listed the following wildlife-
- Nile Buffalo (the dominant mammal in 1949)
- Giraffe (a 1981 aerial census located 2,095 Giraffe in the park and near the park - in 2007 an aerial census could not locate any Giraffe)
- Elephant
- Giant Eland
- Waterbuck
- Oribi
- Kob
- Hartebeest
- Colobus Monkey
- Giant Forest Hog
- Lions
- Baboon
- Bush-baby

- White Rhino (believed extinct, but a search is underway)
- Tilapia
- Cat-fish (1 meter long)
- Lung Fish (Polypterus bichir)
- Eel Fish (Gymnarchus niloticus)
- Marabou storkPelican
In 1949 most of the Southern National Park was covered by tall grass, often 15 feet high, in the wet season. There are also two types of islands of tropical forests within the grassland called:
- Anogeissus forest, where the bush-baby is located.
- Granite koppie with gallery forest, where colobus and Giant Forest Hog are located.
Recently Wild Dog has been reported along the north edge of the park. but for better wildlife viewing we strongly recommend Uganda and Kenya
