Africa’s Most Iconic Animals. The Big 5 was traditionally used as a hunting term to describe the five most dangerous animals to hunt on foot in Africa.
But they’re not the most dangerous animals in Africa. The two species that kill the most people are not even part of the Big Five; they are the tiny mosquito and the lazy hippo.
Tanzania offers a range of Big Five safari animals to suit every traveler. Whether you’re looking for a luxury safari, a budget-friendly option, or a custom-made itinerary, there’s something for everyone.
