The Kalahari is home to potentially dangerous wildlife, including lions and other large predators, but wildlife encounters are generally well managed in protected areas. Visitors should follow park regulations, remain inside their vehicles during game drives unless accompanied by an authorized guide, and keep a safe distance from animals. With these precautions, the risk can be kept low. Seeing predators in their natural environment is one of the most memorable parts of a Kalahari Desert safari, provided wildlife is observed responsibly and without disturbing the animals.
