The crater is a wildlife haven, often referred to as “Africa’s Garden of Eden,” due to its incredible biodiversity and the dense concentration of animals within its walls. It is home to over 25,000 large mammals, including the iconic “Big Five”—lions, leopards, elephants, buffaloes, and the critically endangered black rhino. The crater’s floor is a mosaic of grasslands, forests, and lakes, providing varied habitats for a wide range of species.
