LAKE MANYARA NATIONAL PARK

The rutting season is a frenzied three week long bout of territorial conquests and mating ,followed by survival of the fittest as the 40 kilometer long columns plunge through crocodile infested water on the annual exodus north . Replenishing the species is the brief population explosion that produces more than 8000 calves a day before the 1000 kilometer pilgrimage begins again. NGORONGORO CRATER
Nearly two million years ago ,Ngorongoro Peak towered almost as high as Kilimanjaro . Both these Mountains formed the highest peaks in Africa at that time .The Ngorongoro Peak collapsed beneath the volcano to the form a caldera ,the largest unbroken and unflooded in the world today . Although a geological feature formed by the withdrawal of a molten in this manner is correctly called a caldera ,many people traditionally used the term crater ,and hence Ngorongoro caldera is described as a crater in all records available . In the forest and the swamped areas one can find hippos ,rhinos ,elephant ,water bucks boboons and monkeys.Ngorngoro is one of the few places you are quite sure of spotting rhino. In the 1960 the crater had 100 rhino permanently living there ,but because of poaching ,the number was decreased to under 20 in few years . Now the illegal shooting appears to t be under control so number of rhinos are stabile and even rising
The rhinos are protected by a number of rangers ,and the motto seems to be (it is better that 10 rangers to die protecting the rhinos ,than one rhino to be shot ,
