This is East Africa’s largest black rhino sanctuary and is a major home to very high wildlife population density including white rhino, the rest of all the Big Five, very high rare Grevy’s Zebra population (with thin stripes, bigger ears, bushy tail and a totally white stomach unlike the common ones along Naivasha highway, Nakuru, Mara, Nairobi & Amboseli), giraffes, silver-backed jackal, hyena, African wild dog, oryx, hartebeest (kongoni), cheetah, chimpanzee and an array of birdlife among others. It also hosts the Jane Goodall Chimpanzee (hosting orphaned, abandoned rescued chimps) and the Morani Information Centre, named after the tame resident black rhino-Morani, that was orphaned by poachers in Amboseli Park when only 6 months old (died in 2008 aged 19 years). The sanctuary also boasts to be one of the last abode of the northern white rhino (less than 5 remaining on earth)
