Wildlife Behaviour & Photography Guide - Mammals of Kenya
Know the animal. Capture the story.
This is a 40-species wildlife behaviour and photography guide collection built for photographers who want more than a great shot - they want to understand what they're photographing.
Each species is covered across three beautifully designed pages: who the animal is and when to find it, the zoology and ecology that explains why it behaves as it does, and a practical photography guide with camera settings, essential shots, composition ideas, and storytelling prompts. Whether you're tracking lion prides across the Masai Mara, waiting on elephants at Amboseli, or searching for pangolins after dark in the Aberdares, this guide gives you the knowledge to anticipate the moment before it happens.
What's inside:
40 Kenyan mammal species - from African elephant and cheetah to civet and pangolin
Species behaviour profiles with best times, key locations across Kenya's major wildlife areas, and field signs to look for
Zoological deep-dives covering social structure, communication, diet, and conservation status
Photography guides with starting-point camera settings for portraits, action, and behaviour shots
Storytelling prompts, field challenges, and wildlife welfare guidance for every species
Coverage of Kenya's key wildlife areas: Masai Mara, Amboseli, Tsavo, Samburu, Laikipia, Nairobi NP, and more
Designed for wildlife photographers of all levels, from first-time safari visitors to experienced field photographers, this guide bridges the gap between knowing your camera and understanding your subject. Because the best wildlife images don't come from better gear. They come from patience, knowledge, and being present in a world where things are always happening.
Perfect for: safari photographers · wildlife enthusiasts · Kenya travel · Masai Mara photography · African wildlife guides · nature photography gifts
