Boma National Park

Boma National Park encompasses 22,800 square kilometers of grasslands, floodplains, acacia bush, woodland, and wetlands near the Ethiopian border.

The South Sudanese government designated this protected territory as a national park in 1986 to safeguard populations of white-eared kob and other wildlife.

The park maintains strong connections with neighboring Ethiopian territories, forming part of both Somali-Maasai and Sudano-Guinean ecological regions.

Visitors can observe wildlife migrations between March to April and November to January when over one million antelopes move through the territory.

The territory hosts the second largest animal migration on Earth, with approximately one million kob and 200,000 tiang traveling between seasonal grounds.
