The depths of dry season (October at its height) is the time to be in Hwange for explosive wildlife action. At this time of year, the effect of the shrunken waterholes and the absence of permanent water sources on the desperate wildlife is tangible; not many other parks showcase the harsh reality of survival in the bush as Hwange in October.
The game viewing here in the depths of dry season is not for the faint hearted, but really highlights the resilience of these unbelievable animals. Common sightings include elephant, buffalo, lion, giraffe, wildebeest, impala as well as a good chance to see wild dog, cheetah and leopard.
