The lance-like horned Beisa Oryx and the rare Greater Kudu are seasonal visitors. Gunther's Dikdik, with its huge nasal swellings, the giraffe-necked Gerenuk and the beautiful blue-legged Somali Ostrich are resident all year. The swamp has become a sanctuary in itself for the fascinating semi-aquatic Sitatunga antelope and its primary predator, the Leopard. Birdlife is equally rich with numerous species of Bustards, Plovers, Coursers and birds of prey. At night, leopard are frequently encountered along with bush babies, aardvarks, bat-eared foxes, caracal and various mongooses, genets & civets - a few days at Lewa Downs is a unique combination of hospitality, spectacular scenery and abundant wildlife.
