Udzungwa Mountains is quite different to a lowland national park, and as you would expect the game viewing is quite different. The altitude varies from 250m to 2500m with corresponding habitats that contribute to the diversity. Lion, elephant, leopard, buffalo, hippo and sable antelope are present although unlikely to be seen on your forest walk. The 'Sanje Crested' Mangebey and the Hehe Red Colobus are endemic to the area, also to be seen are the Black and White Colobus , vervet and Blue Sykes monkeys. The most recently discovered bird species is the Udzungwa partridge (1991) discovered when scientists were invited to dinner by local villagers!
