Kruger National Park is the largest game reserve in South Africa. It covers 18,989 square km (7,332 sq mi).
All the Big Five game animals are found at Kruger National Park, which has more species of mammals than any other African Game Reserve (at 147 species): elephants, hippopotamus, white rhinoceros, giraffes, 17 species of antelope, lions, leopards, and crocodiles and many other species.
Tourism is very developed here. But before going there, the tourists are always asked to sign a document that they went there willingly and if they are eaten, the park administration DOES NOT bear any responsibility.
