The Selous Game Reserve stretches across south east Tanzania. The largest game reserve in Africa, it covers an area of 45,000 square kilometers of true wilderness. The mighty Rufiji River cuts through the reserve in its journey to the Indian Ocean and feeds a myriad of lakes and waterways that provide habitat for a rich and diverse array of animals, birds, plants and fish. The reserve is home to over 50 species of large mammals incluing, lion, leopard, buffalo, rhino and elephant. There are 450 species of bird and over 2,000 plants. It contains the world's largest population of elephant, buffalo, hippo and crocodile along with one of the last remaining populations of African Wild Dog. The ecosystems of the reserve are so diverse that the Selous was designated a World Heritage Site in 1982.
