Tsavo East national park

Tsavo East, covering an area of 13474 sq. km is famous for some of the largest herds of elephants in Kenya.

Red elephants

The elephants seem to have a red colour, just like many other animals in the park, which is caused by the red dust which they spray on themselves against insects or parasites.

Lions of Tsavo

The lions of Tsavo owe their fame to the book and movie “The Man-eaters of Tsavo”.

Here a few lions ate several railroad workers during early 20th century.

The lions were later shot dead. It seems the reason they attacked people was because of their bad teeth, which made it difficult for them to chew buffalo or gazelle meat.
