The important catchment areas are home to many bird species

The Tarangire -Manyara swamps are important catchment and home to many bird species, some of which are migratory such as Flamingoes and stocks. These swamps, on the western  and southern parts of the lake manyara, form an important  dry season refugee, particularly  for elephants and Buffaloes. It is also in these swamps that one can find tree- climbing pythons which more out of swamps during dry season to avoid being trampled by elephants and buffaloes that move there for water and grass. These tree-climbing -pathons are also part of the attractions of the park  just like it is for tree-climbing lions of the Tarangire- Manyara ecosystems.

Thanking you for your kindness.
