    he park is open year-round and wildlife is always active.
    Only in rare cases, like heavy rains or flooding, might certain areas close for safety. Otherwise, every season offers unique sightings, from lush greenery to dry landscapes that attract animals to waterholes.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
