Location:
Mashatu Game Reserve is a private reserve situated in the Tuli Block in the remote eastern
corner of Botswana. Although not as popular as Botswana's Moremi Game Reserve and
Chobe National Park, the area boasts a diverse wilderness of savannah,
riverine forests, marshland, open plains and rocky outrops.
There is abundant wildlife and the area is known for its large
herds of elephants. Predators such as lion, leopard, cheetah, and
hyena are attracted by large numbers of migrating wildebeest, kudu,
eland, and impala.
