Home to the greatest concentration of animals on Earth, including lions, crocodiles, elephants, hippos and flamingos, as well as pastoralists such as the Maasai, this is a land in constant geological turmoil. Delve into this world of exotic extremes, and discover how the forces of nature have shaped this charismatic landscape, creating a hotbed of evolution and the cradle of mankind.
