Tarangire is home to a rich variety of wildlife, including large herds of elephants, zebras, wildebeests, giraffes, and buffalo. The park is also known for its predators such as lions, leopards, and cheetahs. Birdwatchers will delight in the park’s diverse bird species, including the endemic yellow-collared lovebirds and the kori bustard, Africa’s heaviest flying bird.
