Summary

It may be surprising to many to hear that this remote game park is the only in Uganda that still keeps Cheetas in the Wild.The other rare species found here is the Bat-Eared Fox,Hyenas and Ostriches.Given the partly harsh climate during the dry season and its remoteness,the park is tends to be less congested since it doesn't make it to many tourists' bucket list. The Narus Valley is agiant plain where big herds of Buffalos and Elephants graze
