SELOUS GAME
RESERVE The largest game reserve in Africa. It covers
about 45,000 sq Selous Game Reserve lies along the
River Rufiji and its tributary, the Luwegu, and is located some 200 km
(125 mi) south-west of Dar es Salaam. The reserve contains open grasslands
alternating with dense forests of hardwood trees. It contains more than a
million large animals, of which 50,000 are elephants. Owing to the
activities of poachers, the elephant total has decreased since 1976, when
a government survey put it at 110,000. Other large animals include
hippopotamuses, rhinoceroses, buffaloes, and giraffes.
