Shaba was the original home of George & Joy Adamson and it is here while preparing Penny a domesticated leopard for her return to the wild, that Joy was found murdered under mysterious circumstances.
Shaba reserve has a similar range of species as Samburu-Buffalo Springs, but as it is a much quieter reserve, the animals are not as used to vehicles and a bit more difficult to spot. It is more suitable for those looking to enjoy wild game in a beautiful wilderness area.
This area is the home of the pastoral Samburu tribe, cousins of the nomadic Masai.
