Caption 66 Meru National Park Meru is a vast area of arid open plains, rivers and baobabs in the north- eastern lowlands of Kenya. The park is very interesting and boasts a greater diversity of species than other Kenyan parks. Regular sightings include Somali ostrich, beisa oryx, gerenuk, Grevy's zebra, reticulated giraffe, greater and lesser kudu, wild dog and leopard. Meru is also famous for its birdlife. Adjoining Meru is the private Shaba Reserve, a semi- arid area of some 200 square kilometres. The Ewaso Nyiro River forms the northern boundary, and the lush Doum palms along its banks offer a dramatic contrast with the sanctuary's rugged landscape.
