BOTSWANA - COUNTRY INFORMATION »
Located
in the northern Kalahari region; Chobe National
Park covers about 11,700 square kilometers, and
consists mainly of dense thorny bush emerging from
deep alluvial soils. A well-worn safari circuit,
made famous by the massive herds of elephant and
buffalo and significant prides of lion that have
become skilled at to hunting large herbivores.
The
Chobe River apparently flows in both directions
and holds the secrecy of the Savuti Channel which
vanished in recent time.
The
highlight to this safari area is Chobe's animal
migrations. The animals move with the available
food and water in the district, exhibiting the ancient
patterns of time. Many head for open plains to the
south and east during the rainy months (December
to March). Then, eventually, from April to November,
as the land dries out and the heat builds, the animals
migrate back to the great rivers of the north and
west.
