Most of the water evaporates and transpired by the surrounding plants. The seasonal flooding of Okavango river by the rainwater from Angola highlands flows into the delta making the waters stretch between 150-250kms.However the floods peaks come between June and August making the waters stretch two to three time. This flooding attracts Africa finest wildlife that travel from afar just to enjoy the plenty vegetation and prey.
Averagely, the Okavango delta is 15,000kms with a variation of only 2 metres in height. It’s an amazing home to a variety of wildlife. Seasonally, some of the wildlife follows the rains while others occupy the area year round. The area has less interference from humans and for tourist it is a wildlife haven. Some of the wildlife that may be encountered include: the big 5.variety of antelopes, Wild dogs, hyenas, giraffes, hippos and even monkeys.
