Southern Africa Conservation Areas.

Nature has endowed Southern Africa with great riches and the sub continent is host to a multitude of game species, birds, plat life, reptiles, butterflies and several smaller creatures that are quite easily overlooked. No less diverse than its wildlife is its scenery; a mosaic of lakes, rivers, waterfalls, vast salt pans, towering mountains, beaches, forests, woodlands, and a fascinating array of geological formations. Fortunately, much of the sub-continent's wildlife heritage and many of its unique attractions enjoy the protection of conservation.

South Africa
Offering a variety of landscapes and wildlife experiences, South Africa is justifiably promoted as "A World in one country". Within its borders are the expansive plains of the Karoo, the Cape Floral Kingdom, towering mountain peaks, vast tracks of bushveld and mikes of unspoilt beaches. It is recognized as a world leader in the field of conservation and counts among its parks two of the oldes conservation areas in Africa, Hluhluwe-Umfolozi and St.Lucia. Other well known parks include the Kruger National Park, Richtersveld, Addo Elephant National Park, and the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park in the Southern Kalahari.

The Okavango Delta in undoubtly the country's main attraction and nearly one third of the Delta is protected within the boundries of the Moremi Game Reserve. Contrasting sharply with the waterways of the Delta are the vast saline pans of the Makgadigadi and the savanna woodlands of the Central Kalahari Game Reserve. Other game reserves in Botswana includes Chobe National Park with its vast herds of Elephant, Savute, Khama Rhino Sanctuary, Khutse Game Reserve, Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, and the Thuli Block.
