Man-made dams have also added a further habitat, favorable to certain species of birds and other aquatic biota.
The dams also attract water dependent herbivores during the dry season.
:This park is also one of the most successful of Kenya's rhino sanctuaries. Attraction include annual wildebeest and zebra migration in July/August, Black rhinoceros, diverse birdlife, large predators, aggregations of large herbivores, Ivory Burning Site Monument and walking trails.
:Later visit the Animal Orphanage, which was established in 1964, as a refuge for wild animals found abandoned, orphaned or injured throughout Kenya.
The aims of the orphanage were to release the animals into the wild whenever possible, provide conservation education to Kenyans and visitors from all over the world.
Over the years, exotic animals' species not necessarily falling in the categories mentioned above have found their way into the animal orphanage.
Problem animals have also been restrained here. However, the orphanage today remains the most visited wildlife facility in Kenya and especially by Kenyans. Later transfer back to your hotel.
