Where in the world you get the best animal safari other than the Maasai Mara country? It’s all out there, the world’s largest animals in the world, the lion, the hippopotamus, the African water buffalo and the tallest giraffes in the world in their own natural habitat and breeding ground.

That’s just not all, the famous Africa Big cats. Yes almost all big cats apart from the endangered Asian tigers. The African lion or the king of all predators, the leopard: the most brilliant climber among the big cats and the fastest animal on land which is non other than the endangered cheetah are just some of the amazing beautiful dangerous endangered animals you can ever have your eyes to feast on for as long as your entire hard drive can accommodate and wills till leave you wanting more animal pictures and animal videos to carry home.

Where will you get the greatest animal migration in the world other than the wildebeest country itself just located around the Maasai Mara Vicinity? If you say you have seen all, there is no place where you cans see all the great Nile crocodiles in action other than the rivers within the Maasai Mara region.


The Maasai Mara region or the famous Mara as it is called by the famous Maasai tribe is famous for all animal species of the African Savannah land. Mammals of different sizes, birds, reptiles amphibians are just in plenty. This is the perfect animal country not just a region or a national park and a national reserve in Kenya but an all rounded for a good African safari destination and travel.

Despite the fact that there is habitat loss in many of the beautiful animal safaris, there are some national parks which have managed to integrate the locals in makings sure that the locals benefit from the local animal safari attraction as has been with the Maasai tribes living in these beautiful animal habitats. The Maasai having lived among the bushes and forest of the big five and the big cats, they are just a perfect example as to how wildlife and humans can co exist when given the best information about animal protection animal conservation and the general importance to animals in the ecosystem.

While the number of tourist still coming to Maasai Mara for these beautiful animal attraction tour still keeps on making headlines as one of the best national parks in the world as far as animals are concerned, many or the reasons as to why the number of animals are decreasing or going extinct in many of the beautiful animal countries such as Tanzania, Uganda ivory coast Zaire and south Africa just to mention a few is habitat loss.   Many of the animal habitat and breeding ground or nearby forest which provide cover for these animals have been cleared and crops are grown.

Just as the Serengeti wildebeest animal migration rout highway which was to be contracted in the middle of the Serengeti National park in Tanzania and with the great effort so f the world community and animal rights groups, the construction of the Serengeti higway was halted. While there are other similar instances where the plight of the human living in some of these resources are denied of the mineral wealth such as Soda ash, many of the animal habitat are lost to land grabbers in the name of expansion of the infrastructure and the more animal habitat land is take away, the bigger the chances of many animals being killed or becoming endangered as world markets tend to attract people to these areas where policing of such game reserves and national parks is still undergoing improvements and needs better handling facilities in order to help quell poaching and cutting down of timber in these animal protected areas as well.

The Mara region having realized that the Maasai could get more from tourism integrated their already nomadic live to this new wealth generation attraction. You find that many local Maasai have ventured in the tourism industry thereby supplementing their income and advancing with the new modern trends of living as well The world has not only been know in the Maasai tribe as the best long distant runners such as the famous cheetah which is also a famous animal tourists attraction in the Masai Mara animal country 


The Maasai living around the Mara national park are as unique as the animals themselves. The Maasai are the only tribes which don’t fear animals. If the lion is the most feared animal on earth, these great Maasai worries are just the perfect combination of man and beast.

What’s the catch? Day in day out Maasai graze their cattle in the Masai Mara animal habitat. Lions and leopards kill their cattle and that’s the only time a Masai will kill any animal which is trying to rob him of his wealth which has been handed over to him from generation to generation as far as the laws of the Maasai clan is concerned. It’s all out therein the wilderness animal videos animal documentaries and how the Maasai have managed to live with these beautiful dangerous animals in harmony.

Despite the fact that roads are built for development and for the Africa Masai Mara animal safari travelers, there is a hue and cry as to some of the changes in the ecosystem in the Mara habitat as animals which are accustomed to the wilderness sometimes tend to find refuge on the roads while animal attacks are also inevitable given the animal instinct with these dangerous animals in the Mara habitat.

While it might seem ethical to save dolphins which have drifted ashore in many of the worlds famous beaches which makes headlines of the bravery of the animal loving men and women, but on the other hand it sounds strange when when you are on safari and you want to help an animal which is wounded or is in danger. 


What are the yardsticks as far as good animal safari loving person would do? As they say rule number one obey all the rules. No stepping out of your safari vehicle unless authorized. No touching animals unless under supervision nd protection of the concerned authorities and no feeding animals so that you can have a very clear close up photo of an animal.

These are just the few simplest rules which are there to stay and not to ask questions otherwise in other places, touching animals is an offence and you can be prosecuted by law.

Rule number one for an animal safari. Obey all the rules. That’s the best thing while you are out there on the Mara habitat where animals are running, screaming and yelling for their lives in all direction here and there, just enjoy the Mara safari and hope to come and visit with a more open mind of even a better Maasai Mara animal safari than before.
