Mammals of Lake Nakuru National Park
White Rhinos Asleep
Lake Nakuru National park is a wonderful sanctuary for rhinos. It boasts a population of over 50 white rhinos and over 80 black. The white rhinos are easily seen on the Southern edge of the lake. In this occasion, though, I found three white rhinos asleep of the Western shore of the lake. There was a big herd of buffaloes in the background and the rhinos were relaxed, fast asleep, next to the road.
