Best places to see elephants in Africa

Arabiaweather.com - Ismail Ghasimi - Giants of the Savannah African elephants are the largest land mammals in the world, weighing up to 6 tons and measuring up to 3 meters in length, and it's not hard to see why they are among the most popular animals in Africa.

The elephant is often ranked among the most watched Big Five animals by people around the world. These creatures live in large herds and are characterized by their matriarchal society, where the female elephants are in charge of leading the herd.

In this group are a number of national parks that are considered the best places in Africa to spot an elephant:

Chobe National Park, Botswana

It is home to between 50 thousand to 70 thousand elephants, as the number increases, especially in the dry season, and it is the park that is undoubtedly one of the best places in Africa to see the elephant, not only because it has the largest number of elephants, but also because there are a number of the largest elephants physically.

Addo Elephant National Park, South Africa

It is a sanctuary for more than 600 elephants, and today it has become the third largest national park in South Africa, after it was founded in 1931 with only about 11 elephants, which makes it one of the most interesting and memorable places.

Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe

It is located near the Chobe National Park, and is also home to many elephants that migrate freely from Botswana to Zimbabwe across the Chobe and Zambezi rivers to search for food between the two parks.

David Seldrick Wildlife Sanctuary, Kenya

It is a wildlife center located in Nairobi, the capital, and takes care of a large number of orphaned and injured elephants, where there is a private nursery open for an hour a day, to which elephants come from the bush to get milk and play with water.
