Kenya Wild Parks ·

2024/09/05

Jackals are truly captivating creatures with a remarkable survival strategy when living among larger, more dominant predators in the wild. What makes their behavior so intriguing is how they skillfully avoid becoming targets for attacks by these other predators.

Kenya Wild Parks ·

2024/09/03

It is very rare for lions to hunt hippos, and when they do, such incidences usually take place under specific and unusual circumstances. Hippos are typically not the prime targets for lions due to their formidable size, thick skin, and powerful bite. However, there are situations where lions, particularly sub-adult males, may target a hippo. These younger lions, full of energy and often lacking the patience or skill to catch faster prey, may initially approach a hippo out of curiosity or

2024/08/22

Cheetahs are often misunderstood, with a myriad of misconceptions surrounding them. Some people mistakenly believe them to be as dangerous as lions or leopards, requiring the same level of fear or caution. While they can be dangerous, especially in captivity, cheetahs are not as aggressive toward humans as some of their larger cousins. However, the notion that they are "friendly" and won't harm humans is equally flawed. In captivity, cheetahs are mostly stressed, making them unpredictable and even

2024/08/18

In the harsh realities of the African Savannah, survival is a constant struggle between predator and prey. One such dramatic encounter is the hunt between a lion and a warthog, particularly when the lion is forced to dig this wild pig out of its burrow. This process is a true test of patience, strength, and persistence for the lion. Warthogs are particularly known for creating burrows that are not only deep but reinforced with dense soil roots and natural obstacles that make it difficult for lions

The white rhino, often referred to as the square-lipped rhino due to the distinctive shape of its mouth, is the largest of the two African rhino species.

Kenya Wild Parks ·

Vultures have a unique method of overpowering and driving cheetahs away from their prey. These birds are not only imposing in size, with some weighing up to 30 pounds, but they also have the advantage of numbers. They never approach a kill alone; instead, they descend in groups, often numbering fifty or more.

Kenya Wild Parks ·

2024/07/23

African lion prides are often thought to have a male leader, but this is a misconception. In reality, lions form coalitions, and while these coalitions may have a dominant individual, the dynamics are far from simple. The dominant status within a coalition can change frequently due to factors such as injuries, power struggles, and even deaths. Unlike human social structures, where a leader might guide and make decisions for a group, a dominant male lion does not lead the pride. Instead, the

2024/07/18

As the fastest land animals, capable of reaching speeds up to 70 miles per hour the Cheetahs' hunting success rate is not always 100% successful, largely due to the complex nature of their hunting strategies. They typically begin their hunt with stalking, often from a considerable distance, sometimes over a football field away and slowly creep in. By the time they explode, they are still a considerable distance away from their intended target. It's their advanced speed that makes up for the gap once

Hyenas are often misunderstood as mere scavengers, despite being responsible for hunting about 95% of their prey. However, like other predators, they sometimes scavenge for sustenance.

Of all the big cats, cheetah-cubs are the least likely to survive because they are the most vulnerable to a wide range of predators as they rely heavily on their mother's experience and skills for survival. Experienced mothers possess a deep understanding of the dangers their cubs face and take proactive measures to mitigate these threats.

2024/06/24

Lions are known for their ability to survive in the wild by hunting strategically. While the big cats generally require about 8 pounds of food each day, this is just one part of the story; there is so much more to how lions feed than meets the eye. They are famous for making large kills and may eat up to a quarter of their weight at once during these feeding times, which happen not only daily but also intermittently—they can go without hunting again for several days or even weeks.⚠️ Start Planning
