WILDLIFE

Mushingashi sustains substantial herds of a great diversity of wildlife. The hundreds of ubiquitous puku on the plains, the stately sable and roan antelopes in the woodland, the diminutive oribi, reedbuck, Sharpes grysbok and duiker. The solid-rumped defassa waterbuck, herds of hartebeest, zebra and buffalo make for a full menu of antelope.

Large prides of lion, solitary leopards and cheetahs are the prime predators with host of smaller carnivores including the side-striped jackal, civet, genet and various mongooses.
