Tarangire is known especially for its large herds of elephants roaming among the huge baobab trees. It has its own “mini-migration” as Tarangire River is an important source of drinking water during the dry season (Jun – Oct) and that makes it the perfect place to spot wildlife. Migratory animals come to put out their thirst and following them are the predators looking for a feast.
