Things to see in Kenya: Meru National Park

This vast, remote, lowland area of arid plains in the north-east is famous as the setting for Joy Adamson's book 'Born Free'. It boasts greater species diversity than some other Kenyan parks, and regular sightings include Somali ostrich, Beisa oryx, gerenuk, Grevy's and common zebra, reticulated giraffe and both greater and lesser kudu, while the predators include lion, leopard and wild dog. Meru is also renowned for its birdlife. The northern boundary of the adjacent smaller Shaba Reserve is the Ewaso Ng'iro River, with doum palms lined banks.
