As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, there was no specific “Nyerere National Park” in Tanzania. However, plans for the establishment of a national park named after Tanzania’s first president, Julius Nyerere, were underway in the Selous Game Reserve. If this park has been officially established since then, I recommend checking the latest sources for accurate and up-to-date information.
As of my last update, the Selous Game Reserve itself was one of Africa’s largest and most diverse wildlife areas, boasting a UNESCO World Heritage Site designation. If the establishment of Nyerere National Park has occurred within the Selous Game Reserve, it would likely be a testament to Tanzania’s commitment to conservation and honoring its historical figures in the realm of wildlife preservation. Please verify from current sources for the latest details on the park’s status and features.
Like most national parks in Tanzania, the dry season from June to October is perfect for game viewing, as the vegetation is more sparse, making it easier to spot animals. March to May and late October to mid-December is the rainy season, which makes many of the roads impassable and animals harder to spot.
For bird enthusiasts, we also recommend the shorter dry season from mid-December to March, as many migratory birds then settle in Selous. If the scarce wild dog is what you are after, June to August is perfect, as this is their denning season.
Selous boasts some of the best wildlife densities in Tanzania. The reserve has 40,000 hippos, 120,000-150,000 buffalo, 100,000 wildebeests, and 35,000 zebras inhabit an area the size of Denmark.
The sheer amount of prey attracts a diversity of predators including 4,000 lions, as well as leopards, hyenas and crocodiles. Some rarer species include the African wild dog, of which 50% of its population live in Selous, as well as the sable and puku antelopes.
It is also one of the few places in Africa where the endangered black rhino can be found. Bird enthusiasts will also cherish this place, as 440 different species of bird populate this area. These can best be discovered by a boat safari.
