Makgadikgadi Pans
The Makgadikgadi Pans are home to a diversity of wildlife, especially during the wet season, despite their seeming harshness and aridity. In quest of new grazing, zebras, wildebeests, and other herbivores migrate to the pans, where they are joined by predators like lions and cheetahs. The pans are crucial for birding as well; during the wet season, numerous kinds of waterfowl and wading birds congregate here. The region around the Makgadikgadi Pans has a long history of human habitation. Indigenous groups such as the San people (also known as Bushmen) have lived in this area for thousands of years. Their cultural heritage and traditional lifestyles are of great importance and interest to visitors. The pans are routinely flooded during the rainy season, which normally lasts from November to April when a thin layer of water covers the salt crust. For visitors interested in experiencing the region's vast natural beauty, this is the season when wildlife and birdlife are most prolific.
