Get ready to witness one of the most extraordinary sights in South Luangwa National Park! Meet the Cookson’s wildebeest - a stunning and rare species that will leave you in awe. These beautiful creatures are only found in the northern territories of the park, making sightings all the more special. In fact, we spotted 50 of them on our game drive (yes, we counted!), making it a truly triumphant morning.
But what sets the Luangwa Cookson’s wildebeest apart from the common blue wildebeest found across Africa? Not only are they lighter in colour and slightly larger, but they also have distinct and mesmerizing markings on their neck and face. Trust us; you won’t want to miss seeing these magnificent creatures up close!
