Andoni was the watering-place where we saw the biggest group of animals at one place (Gemsboks, Springbocks, Zebras, Blue wildebeests, Ostrichs, Warthogs) Everywhere in the whole park we saw lots of various birds. | The pan is a big lake, which has no draining of and nearly no affluent. The water evaporates very fast, so the most time it is dry. | |
