The Tsavo East and Tsavo West National Park are staples of many safaris in Kenya. They cover an area of over 21,000 square kilometres. The protected area was divided into two parks, separated by the road and railway connecting Mombasa and Nairobi. The Tsavo East National Park is the largest national park in Kenya and with an area of 11,747 square kilometers it makes up 40% of the total area of Kenya’s national parks. The park is known for its large “red” elephant herds. The animals get their red coloring from the striking red earth in the area, which they rub as dust or mud on their thick skin. This iron oxide-rich laterite soil protects the elephants from intense sun exposure, parasites and contributes to their general skin care.
