The Magnificence of Kenya’s Iconic Wildlife
Kenya’s Big Five: An Introduction
The Big Five — lion, leopard, rhino, elephant, and buffalo — are the stars of Kenya’s safari scene.
Spotting these animals can feel like reaching the pinnacle of a wildlife adventure.
Here are the photos of these majestic creatures in their natural habitat
Other Charismatic Species
Wildlife in Kenya is more than just the Big Five. Giraffes stretch tall in the trees, cheetahs sprint after prey, hippos bob in river waters, and crocodiles lounge on riverbanks.
Rare and Endangered Species
Kenya is also home to rare animals like Grevy’s zebra, black rhinoceros, and Ruppell’s vulture. These species face many threats due to poaching and habitat destruction.
Visual stories of conservation projects aim to raise awareness and celebrate success stories—like the rebirth of the black rhino population.
