The Samburu National Reserve is located in the Samburu District, North of the Equator, at an altitude ranging from 800 to 1,230 meters above sea level and it covers an area of about 165-square kilometers, equivalent to 64 sq miles. The reserve is part of a much larger eco system which includes the bordering Buffalo Springs and Shaba National Reserves. Buffalo Springs covers an area of approximately 131sq km and Shaba covers an area of approximately 239sq km.
Samburu is characterized by a desert and semi-desert region with a dry and warm climate; the Southern border of the reserve is demarcated by the Ewaso Nyiro River, that is the only permanent source of water in this protected area, even during the dry season; from this river depends the survival of all the animals in the reserve.
The two major rainfall seasons typical to Kenya also loosely apply to Samburu, with the months from April to May and September to November seeing brief rainy spells nonetheless accompanied by hours of sunshine.
Though the reserve is famously known for its Though the reserve is famously known for its special five ( Gravy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, Beisa Oryx, Somali ostrich and gerenuk ), there are also many other species of animals, mammals, birds and reptiles: lions, leopards, cheetahs, wild dogs, several species of antelopes, gazelles, warthogs, jackals, giraffes, hippos, crocodiles and over 450 species of birds, but especially a large number of elephants; it is estimated that more than 900 specimens live here and it is very common to spot them as they descend to the river to drink and cool off
The Samburu people are the indigenous nomadic tribe, who live in an arid zone in North-Central Kenya. They are one of the most famous and interesting tribes in Kenya and still retain many of their traditions as they live largely unaffected by modern day civilization. The Samburu have their unique nomadic culture and way of life not to mention their traditonal dress of red or brightly colored ”shukas” or body drapes.
