Wildlife
The Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park is the only National Park in Zambia where the endangered white rhinoceros can be seen. Sussi and Chuma Lodge is situated within the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park and sightings of crocodile, hippo, elephant, wildebeest, buffalo, giraffe, zebra and monkeys are not uncommon. The bird life in the area is also very good. View points are "strung" out around the lodge where guests may sit and enjoy the African bush.
