Wildlife
Linyanti is famous for its large concentrations of elephants, particularly during the dry season when herds gather in impressive numbers. Other wildlife includes lions, leopards, wild dogs, buffalos, zebras, and hippos. The region’s diverse habitats also support antelopes such as sable, roan, and red lechwe.
