The Maasai Mara National Reserve also known as The Mara by the locals is a huge game reserve in Narok County, extension of Tanzania’s National Park. Maasai Mara is named in respect and honour of the Maasai people (the ancestral inhabitants of the area) and their description of the area when looked at from afar: "Mara," which is Maa (Maasai language) for "spotted," an apt description for the circles of trees, scrub, savanna, and cloud shadows that mark the area.

In yester years when the annual wildebeest migration was at its peak, the reserve held almost 2.5 million large herbivores together with smaller species – 1.4 million wildebeest, 550,00 gazelles, 200,000 Zebra, 62,000 buffalo, 64,100 impala, 61,200 topi, 7,500 hartebeest, 7,100 giraffe, 3,000 eland and 4,000 elephant – plus uncounted antelope such as dik-dik, duiker, steenbok, Rhino, warthog & bushpig. Besides there were the big cats – lion, leopard & cheetah.
