  1. Tropical Savannah - A short list of some of those animals includes wildebeest, warthogs, elephants, zebras, rhinos, gazelles, hyenas, cheetahs, lions, leopards, ostrich, mousebirds, starlings, and weavers.

    Savannah - giraffe, zebra, antelope, water buffalo, kangaroo, cheetah, rino, hippo, monkey, lion, warthog, antelope, bearded lizard, baboon, kookabura, ostriech, hyena, kudi, pryx, margay, capibara, tapir, gnu, impala, and kilpspringer. Also, mice, gophers, and ground squirrels.


  2. Great mammals antelopes, zebra and their predators lions

  3. African Savanna

    The East African savanna, a dry tropical grassland, is home to a rich array of spectacular animals. Predators like lions and cheetahs prey on grazing and browsing animals like zebras, gazelles, and sometimes young giraffes. Stately birds like kori bustards stalk smaller prey while rarely seen naked mole-rats inhabit burrows on the savanna; huge hippos stay cool in rivers and lakes.

    You can see these species and more without traveling to Africa. Just come to the Zoo or watch our web cams. African species at the Zoo

    Tall and Small at the Elephant House

    Come to the Elephant House to see some African animals—a Nile hippo and two pygmy hippos—plus capybaras from South America and three Asian elephants.

    Spots and Stripes at the Cheetah Conservation Station

    The Zoo's Cheetah Conservation Station is home to Grevy's zebras, scimitar-horned oryx, cheetahs, and other animals.

    Grasslands in Africa and Beyond

    scimitar-horned oryxAfrica's Sahel grassland, home to endangered scimitar-horned oryx and many other rare species, merges into the Sahara desert to the north and the savanna to the south. Mostly dry grasslands also cover southern Africa, home to cheetahs, Cape buffalo, black rhinos, and kori bustards also found in East Africa. Zoo scientists are working in all of these areas to help conserve the incredible biodiversity of Africa's grasslands.

    Moist tropical forests blanket parts of central and West Africa, home to great apes, including western lowland gorillas, which you can see at the Zoo.

    black-footed ferretNorth America's grasslands were once home to abundant black-footed ferrets, bison, and prairie dogs. On South America's plains, seriemas and maned wolves stalk prey. Parts of Asia, such as Mongolia, home of Bactrian camels, Mongolian gazelles, and Prezwalski's horses, are covered with grasslands.
