Truly the flagship of the South African national parks, Kruger is home to an impressive number of species:
336 trees, 49 fish, 34 amphibians, 114 reptiles, 507 birds and 147 mammals.
Man's interaction with the Lowveld environment over many centuries - from bushman rock paintings to majestic archaeological sites like Masorini and Thulamela - is very evident in the Kruger National Park.
These treasures represent the cultures, persons and events that played a role in the history of the Kruger Park and are conserved along with the park's natural assets. |
