Elephant and Cape buffalo are common in the area, frequently occurring in large breeding herds several hundred strong. There are also healthy populations of all the antelope species of the region.

The area is renowned for its frequent sightings of the famed Big Five, lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhinoceros and has healthy populations of all other species found in the region.
