Regular Game drive in Maasai Mara

by Thomas | Jan 12, 2020 | Africa, Animals, Endangered Species, Featured, Kenya, Maasai Mara

A game drive in Maasai Mara, when you don’t spot any big cats, looks something like this. You will most likely see a herd of Impalas standing, normally with their backs to the sun, so that they can shield their heads in the shadow cast by their body. When you...
