In the far north-eastern corner of South Africa, Kruger National Park is the largest game reserve in the country, and the most famous wildlife zone on the African continent. Stretching out over 7,332 square miles, Kruger is a wonderland of wildlife. It has 507 species of birds and 147 species of mammals. It also has a fair bit of history --- it dates back to 1898 when it was founded as a game reserve in an attempt to control hunting in the area. It didn’t see a tourist until 1927; however, one year later it became a national park. It's a good place to see roaring beasts in their own backyards. South Mrica is an increasingly hot tourist spot, and you may want to visit it this year, before it hosts the 2010 football World Cup. South Africa is also an inexpensive country for tourists. Anyone seeking to escape the European winter will be surprised to hear that March is not the best time to go to Kruger. The six-month period between May and October tends to be the most suitable time for wildlife-spotting. The weather is not only cooler but also considerably drier. This means that water sources dry up and animals are forced to approach rivers, creeks, dams and watering holes in search of liquid refreshment. If you go to South Africa, you need to pay attention to the threat of malaria (疟疾). Kruger is one of the only two South African national parks that have an issue about the disease, but only during the rainy season (December to April). A disadvantage of Kruger is that it sits a long way from South Africa's other well-known tourist attractions --- Cape Town, the Garden Route, and the meeting of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans at Cape Agulhas.
