Botswana is probably one of the only places in Africa that has vast land that the wildlife and people are both not in competition. There’s only slightly over one and a half million people in Botswana yet their country is the same size as France. This phenomenon has resulted in larger numbers of wildlife that hide the finest gems in all Africa.

Botswana is already successful due to its large diamond exports, so they do not really concentrate on tourism. This does not deter tourists, they still flock to Botswana. Their government controls the number of people that can go on a safari in   Botswana, this causes their prices to be higher than other African countries. As a result Botswana has become more of an exclusive safari destination.

84% of Botswana is the Kalahari desert. This desert is not like the Sahara in North Africa. It does have the occasional sand dunes, but it is mostly covered with vegetation characterized by bushes, grasslands, trees and scrubs. The only reason it is called a desert is because water is not readily available.

Most people who go on Botswana safaris have mentioned how creative and genius they have managed to create and maintain all the wildlife sanctuaries.

The best place to see wildlife in Botswana would be in the Chobe National Park which is situated in the north east side of the country. This national park has the widest variety of animals and has been said to be the home of the largest group of elephants in a single place anywhere in the world. The elephant population is estimated at  about 80,000.

Within the Chobe National Park you will find Savuti Marshes,this is where you find a high number of predators compared to other areas in Africa. You will find a huge variety of wildlife species here, both preys and predators.

This marsh has access to water therefore you will find buffalo, antelopes, zebras. Then you will also find leopards, cheetahs, wild dogs, lions, and jackals. This marsh makes some of the predators lazy, food is always abundant.

If you are looking fora unique place for wildlife conservation safari, then Botswana is your destination. This is something they have been working hard for a very long time to accomplish. Botswana has many neighbors, although they try to protect their animals and keep them in their country they need help from countries such as Zimbabwe and South Africa.The truth of the matter is that wildlife do not understand that there are international borders.

Well, it is good still know that there are still some wildlife sanctuaries and reserved that are available should you want to do something in the outdoors.

Most people who love nature and wildlife, whether researchers or hobbyists find comfort in visiting African safaris. In there, you get a more realistic view of life, death in there is just another part of life. (We have strangely forgotten that in our city lifestyle, we only work, work, work and work more. Everyday. Every, single day of our lives, we believe that by working we live.)

In Africa on the savannah plains, you can experience the daily exchange of life and death between the animals whilst they are in their natural environment. It is the dance of existence between the components of nature, death and living are two closely intertwined practical elements that make nature more proportionate.

Experiencing an African lion safari allows you enjoy such an element. Lions are considered one of the big five animals in the wild. They are in the same category as the revered buffalo, the leopard, the rhinoceros and the huge elephant. Although you can also enjoy nature, game is more of the main attraction in the African wilderness. If you get a chance to see the prey getting hunted down by the merciless lionesses, you are witnessing nature maintaining its equilibrium. This is a very intricate and delicate process, indeed.

Apparently, African lion safaris seem to be the ultimate experience when it comes to wildlife drives. They offer you the chance to see wild animals interacting with the ecosystems. Majestic animals that constitute the circle of life. You may also see how many different animals, birds and of living species compete in order to survive. You can observe while riding in an open safari vehicle or other different kinds of safaris.

The best place to find African lion safaris are natural habitats which include areas such as South Africa, Botswana, Kenya, Tanzania, Zimbabwe and Namibia. The are many national parks in Africa that offer African lion safaris. These parks include world revered reserves such as the Kruger National Park, Chobe National Park, Pilanesburg National Park, Lake Manyara National Park, Masai Mara National Reserve, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Samburu National Reserve and Lake Manyara National Park this is to mention just a few and the most popular ones.

In conclusion, the role that lions play in African savannahs, forests, wildlife and safaris is not just something fascinating to experience but will also help you understand more how life and nature really works.

This reserve in turn forms part of the Greater Limpopo Transfrontier Park, a vast and growing area, currently covering 6 million acres and incorporating the famous Kruger National Park. This rich wild wonderland assures exceptional game drives and a true wilderness experience.

Breeding herds of elephant and buffalo roam throughout the Londolozi area ,while white rhino and lion concentrations are amongst the highest recorded on the African continent.
