Offering an abundance of herbivores, the Mara makes the ideal hunting ground for Kenya’s famous ‘big cats’ and hosts her largest population of lions. It also offers the best chance of spotting a leopard in the wild. Other predators include cheetah and spotted hyena.In the Maa language, the common tongue of the Il-Maasai clans, the word ‘Mara’ means ‘spotted’ and is thought to refer to the patchy mosaic of bushes and trees that define the Mara plains.
