The crater floor, a vast expanse of grassland, savanna, and forests, is home to an incredible diversity of wildlife. The Ngorongoro Crater is often referred to as "Africa's Garden of Eden" due to its abundant resources and the large numbers of animals that congregate there. The crater is home to the "Big Five" – lions, leopards, elephants, rhinoceroses, and buffaloes – as well as a wide variety of other animals, including zebras, wildebeest, gazelles, hippos, and flamingos. The crater's unique ecosystem, with its abundant water sources and diverse habitats, provides a haven for these animals and many more. Ngorongoro Crater is a truly remarkable place, offering visitors a unique opportunity to witness the wonders of the African savanna.
