The park is home to many wild animals, including zebras, giraffes, buffaloes, impalas, elands, topis, warthogs, waterbucks, bushbucks, hippos, crocodiles, and many other antelope species. It is also one of the few national parks in Uganda where visitors can enjoy a walking safari with an experienced ranger, allowing you to experience wildlife on foot while learning about nature and animal behavior.
