These creatures are among the fauna that roam the park's grounds, which are dotted with baobab trees, acacia woodlands, high grasses, and seasonal swamps.

The Ngorongoro Crater is the world's largest unbroken volcanic caldera. The 2,000-foot-deep crater formed when a volcano exploded and collapsed on itself some 2 to 3 million years ago. A rich grassy pasture covers the crater floor and provides favourable conditions for grazing animals such as lions, zebras, gazelles, buffalo, and warthogs, to name a few. This natural enclosure provides a haven for some of Tanzania's endangered black rhinos.
