This enormous area links the Julius Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous) with the forested abundance of the eastern arc mountains, and so is an important part of a huge ecosystem of rivers, flood plains, forests, and woodlands. Mikumi is rich in Blue Wildebeests, Buffalos, Lions, Zebras, Antelopes, Hippos and Crocodiles, Birds, etc.
