Lake Eyasi, situated in Northern Tanzania, is the 3rd largest Lake close to Ngorongoro Conervation Area and Serengeti National Park. It is situated between the Upper Kitete/Selela corridor and another potentially severed corridor. These corridors once maintained important migration routes for wildlife. A key feature of the Selela corridor is that it connects Ngorongoro Conservation Area to the lowlands below the Great Rift Valley escarpment with Lake Manyara National Park. Our Hyena Bush Camp is located on the southern edge of Ngorongoro, where   elephants, buffalos, leopards, lions, giraffe and other herbivores pass through during the migration.

The threats outside the Ngorongoro Conservation Area are increased human settlement and cultivation causing interruption to their movement. Even though cultivation was stopped, homes, domestic livestock and cattle dips still exist within the corridor. 

Lake Eyasi is also home to indigenous tribes.  While the Hadzabe traditionally inhabited the lake shores, the Datoga are mainly centered in the Yaeda Valley. Meet Lily and Uda from the Datago under
