Kenyan wildlife includes what are regarded as 'The Big 5'. Specifically, these are: Elephants, Buffalo, Rhinoceros, Lions, Leopards.
The elephant is the largest land mammal, and can live up to 70 years. They live in all-female social groups called herds, headed by a dominant female called the matriarch--males live alone or on the fringes of the herd.
The African Buffalo, or Cape Buffalo is a very large (500-900 kg) bovine with a very unpredictable nature, making them very dangerous, even to predators like lions. They can be found in all kinds of habitats, ranging from grassland to thick forests.
The rhinoceros is another very large animal that has a heavily armoured body. In Kenya there are two species, the Black Rhinoceros and the White Rhinoceros. The black rhino, named because of it's dark colouration, is found in grassland or woodlands and is a solitary animal. The White Rhinoceros, whose name comes from the Afrikaans for 'Wide', describing the very wide mouth (as opposed to the pointed mouth of the black rhino). White rhinos, found in grasslands, can be solitary or sometimes live in small groups.
Lions are Africa's largest 'big cat', and stand out from all others in that they live in organized social groups called prides. The lion is a powerful predator, especially when working together--they can bring down prey as large as a buffalo. Lions are commonly protected in game reserves like the Masai Mara.
The leopard is a solitary cat, and the most versatile (and successful) of all the big cats. It is usually a nocturnal hunter, but often can be seen during the daylight hours--the leopard is very opportunistic. It will kill and eat a very large variety of prey, from insects and reptiles, right up to the young of large herbivores like Wildebeest, which is a major factor in why it is so successful. They have incredibly strong shoulder and neck muscles, which allow them to carry their prey (often weighing as much, or more than them) up into trees, to prevent other predators and scavengers from 'stealing' their meal.
There are many other animals in Kenya, such as the Cheetah (the fastest land mammal) and the Giraffe (the tallest land mammal). You would need a book to write about every animal, so let's leave it there, shall we?
