Ruaha National Park, spanning about 20,226 square kilometers, is a vital conservation area in central Tanzania. The park's landscape is characterized by rolling hills, river systems, and expansive savannas that support a robust population of diverse wildlife. Animals commonly observed include elephants, lions, leopards, giraffes, and a significant population of wild dogs. Ruaha is part of the larger Rungwa-Kizigo-Muhesi ecosystem and serves as a critical region for ecological research and species conservation.
