Mamba Village Crocodile
Pen
Nairobi Mamba Village - just as the name suggests, is
the home of Crocodiles in Kenya's capital city. The
species found here is the Nile Crocodile - which is
one of the three species common in Africa and the biggest
as well. Also considered as man-eaters, the Nile Crocodile
can, and sometimes does easily snatch and devour human
beings at will. Any close encounter with the reptile
is to be avoided at all costs. The Nile Crocodile also
known scientifically as Crocodylus Niloticus - is on
average a well known reptile, primarily owing to its
huge size.
It has four short, splayed legs; a long powerful tail;
and a scaly hide with rows of scales (known as ossified
scutes) running down the back to end of its tail. Its
mighty jaws are regarded as its greatest asset and weapon.
The nostrils, eyes and ears are also located on the
top of their heads - the reason why the reptile is able
to conceal the rest of its body underwater.
Juvenile crocodiles are grey, dark olive or brown -
though the cross-bands on their tail and body are darker.
And as they mature - their hide gets darker as the cross-bands
fade away. The color of the Crocodile's skin makes it
easy for the reptile to lay in wait patiently for unsuspecting
prey. At the Nairobi Mamba Village, the existing pens
are flanked by grayish rocks and sand beds where the
Croc's bask - within a richly vegetated background meant
to mimic their wild and natural habitat.
Nairobi
Mamba Village Ostrich
Park
Amazing integration of nature and man activities with
an opportunity to see savannah ostrich in an extensive
area and yet get close enough to feed them from your
hand. All this is experienced in the Mamba village Ostrich
Park. Ostriches
are flightless birds, regarded as the world's largest
and heaviest birds. Their scientific name Struthio camelus
is derived from the Greek word "camel sparrow".
In local Kiswahili dialect they are referred to commonly
as "mbuni".
Ostriches can be found in especially Africa - although
almost all zoos worldwide must have the bird within
their pens. The birds also considered to be powerful
runners - have long, sturdy legs though each has only
two toes.
At the ostrich park in Nairobi Mamba Village, the sanctuary
provides an amazing integration of nature and activities.
Visitors have an opportunity to see a graceful savannah
ostrich within its natural environment and also get
up close enough to feed them from one's hand.
