Donkerder maande is elke park se eie beste seisoen, wanneer yl bos of skaars water dit makliker maak om te kyk. 'n Waarneming is nooit gewaarborg nie.

Beste tye van die dag

Vroegoggend en laatmiddag. Die Black Wildebeest is bedags uit, en die maklikste om te sien voor die hitte.
Middaghitte. Rus dikwels in die skaduwee of naby water.
