These bulls, some of them living permanently in the zone, together with herds of mothers and calves, migrate between the swamp of Amboseli National Park and the acacia woodlands of Sinya in search of water and food. Due to their familiarity with safari vehicle sin Amboseli, they allow vehicles to approach them at very short distances, allowing for excellent photographic opportunities.
