Why Visit Selous Game Reserve.
High Concentration
(numbers) of animal, reptile and bird life: The Selous
Game Reserve prides the largest concentration of
elephants said to be more than 55,000, over 3000 lions,
approximately 40,000 hippos, over 110,000 buffalos and
an increasing population of the African hunting dog
whose population is noted to be approximately 1300. The
high numbers of animals means more nature watching and
photographing opportunities for Bush Routes Adventures
guests. Did you know more that 50% of Tanzania's
elephant population is resident in the Selous Game
Reserve?
• Diverse Species of
animal, reptile, fish and bird life: Apart from the
Selous having a high concentration of animal, reptile,
fish and bird life, it has a diverse species list. It
has: 440 different species of birds, animals on land as
well as in water. It has fishing opportunities where
guests who have obtained a license can have a go on the
river. Diverse species of the Selous include but are not
limited to leopards, African hunting dog, hyenas,
elands, crocodiles, hippos, black rhinos, tiger fish,
catfish, batleur eagles, storks and hornbills. The great
characteristic about the Selous is that it is possible
to view wildlife not seen elsewhere.
• Superb Landscape and
Vegetation: Selous Game Reserve has a mixed variety of
landscape that includes rocky hills, small mountains,
and flat plains with vegetation types that include
grasslands, acacia, Miombo woodlands, riverine forests,
and with the presence of the permanent Rufiji River,
guarantees a one of kind authentic wilderness
experience.
• Multiple Adventure
Activities: An adventure seeker to the Selous can be
guaranteed three different activities in one single game
reserve: game driving which enables you track more
biodiversity to add to your checklist, boat rides which
serve as classic alternative to relaxation with
incredible sundowners for honeymooners, couples and
others who prefer to view the best of an African
sundowner and wilderness trekking also called walking
safaris where one can come very close to nature.
• Preserved Ecosystem: The
Selous Wildlife Management Plan makes a conscientious
decision to limit the number of guests visiting the game
reserve for the purposes of preserving and creating a
sustainable ecosystem. This means that Bush Routes
Adventures guests visiting Selous Game Reserve can limit
the chances of bumping into other vehicles that can
startle an animal one may be already watching, and we
can say this from our personal experience.
• Reasonable Transportation
and Accommodation Choices: Access to Selous Game Reserve
can be arranged via the 3 transportation modes: road,
rail, and air. These choices allow Bush Routes
Adventures guests to select a program that best fits
their budget. This is also true of the accommodation in
the park
