Chobe is the second largest national park in Botswana, and covers 11,000km2. It is particularly well known for its huge herds of elephants which are often seen by the Chobe River, and is an excellent park for a variety of wildlife, due to its varying habitats from dry scrubland and mopane forest, to marshlands and rivers. The riverfront is the most visited area, and has the densest population of game, particularly the famous Chobe elephants. Hippo, buffalo, giraffe, zebra, jackal, warthog, kudu, sable, and many more species are present in this large area. Taking a river trip gives a different perspective on the area and is a great way to watch wildlife. The marshy floodplain is where you will most likely see the red lechwe and the puku. This area is at its best for wildlife viewing from about June to October. Savuti and the Madabe Depression are also popular areas in the park as, again, the wildlife is quite dense here. Savuti lies within the Madabe Depression which is a huge hollow left behind from an ancient lake.
