General Infos.
Tarangire National Park is situated in the Manyara region of Tanzania. Encompassing a 2600 km2 area between the Maasai Steppe and Great Rift Valley lake region, it is the sixth largest park in the country, and named for the river that is the primary source of water for the region’s wildlife throughout the dry season. It forms part of what is referred to as Tanzania’s northern safari circuit.
The park comprises large swaths of dry, open woodland, punctuated by thorny acacia thickets and plenty of scenic baobabs, with an expansive network of swamps towards the south. The region’s avian biodiversity is exceptional thanks to its inimitable array of habitats, and it is home to plenty of high-profile mammals as well. This includes large herds of elephant, wildebeest and zebra, as well as impala, buffalo, eland and giraffe. Lions, leopards, cheetah and spotted hyena are also common.
The park is famous for its high density of elephants and baobab trees. Visitors to the park in the June to November dry season can expect to see large herds of thousands of zebra, wildebeest and cape buffalo. Other common resident animals include waterbuck, giraffe, dik dik, impala, eland, Grant's gazelle, vervet monkey, banded mongoose, and olive baboon. Predators in Tarangire include lion, leopard, cheetah, caracal, honey badger, and African wild dog.
The oldest known elephant to give birth to twins is found in Tarangire. A recent birth of elephant twins in the Tarangire National Park of Tanzania is a great example of how the birth of these two healthy and thriving twins can beat the odds.
Home to more than 550 bird species, the park is a haven for bird enthusiasts. The park is also famous for the termite mounds that dot the landscape. Those that have been abandoned are often home to dwarf mongoose. In 2015, a giraffe that is white due to leucism was spotted in the park. Wildlife research is focused on African bush elephant and Masai giraffe. Since 2005, the protected area is considered a Lion Conservation Unit.
Tarangire National Park can be reached via paved road south from Arusha in under two hours. Lake Manyara National Park is a 70 kilometer (43 mile) drive from Tarangire.
Sports & nature
Tarangire National Park is a national park in Tanzania's Manyara Region. The name of the park originates from the Tarangire River that crosses the park. The Tarangire River is the primary source of fresh water for wild animals in the Tarangire Ecosystem during the annual dry season. The Tarangire Ecosystem is defined by the long-distance migration of wildebeest and zebras. During the dry season thousands of animals concentrate in Tarangire National Park from the surrounding wet-season dispersal and calving areas.
