The best time to visit North Luangwa is during the dry season from June to November. This season starts off warm with daytime temperatures in the region of 24°C (75°F) but quite cool nights.
Hippopotamus
Hippos weigh from 1,600-3,200 kg (up to 3 tons) and it is amazing just how fast they can move, both in and out of the water. Their two essential requirements are water deep enough to submerge in and a good supply of grassland.
