This park is crucial for the conservation of endangered species such as the African Elephant, as well as other notable wildlife like the Red-fronted Gazelle and the rare Roan Antelope. Birdwatchers will be thrilled by the park's rich avian diversity, highlighted by the wintering population of over 20,000 Demoiselle Cranes, making it the only place in Ethiopia to witness these elegant birds.

I'm from the local. I was born and raised in this area. The park is known as Kafta Sheraro National Park. Its so called because it found between the two districts, Kafta & Sheraro. One of the biggest rivers in Ethiopia, Tekeze, flows through the park. The place was marked as park by the Ethiopian government in 2007 and covers 5000 msq. Its known for its population of a number of wild animals, primarily Elephants, lions, leopards, birds, etc. It extends from upper valleys of Tekeze in Kafta to the dry deserts of Gash Barka in Eritrea.
