The park encompasses a number of different ecosystems ranging from evergreen forests to papyrus swamps and as well as the bats is home to large herds of puku, elephant, buffalo, sable and roan, as well as the shy and elusive sitatunga (which can be observed from a well concealed tree hide).
There is also excellent birdlife in Kasanka with wattled cranes, green sunbirds, Lady Ross’s turaco and the African finfoot all present.
