→ ETOSHA NATIONAL PARK, IN THE VAST ARID SPACE OF NORTHERN NAMIBIA, BY ERIC BÉZINE

Etosha Nation­al Park is a nation­al park in the Kunene Region of north­west­ern Namib­ia. The park shares bound­aries with the regions of Oshana, Oshiko­to and Otjo­zond­ju­pa. Etosha was first estab­lished in 1907, when Namib­ia was a Ger­man colony known as South West Africa. At the time, the park’s orig­i­nal 100,000 km² made it the largest game reserve in the world. Due to polit­i­cal changes since its orig­i­nal estab­lish­ment, the park is now slight­ly less than a quar­ter of its orig­i­nal area, but still remains a very large and sig­nif­i­cant area in which wildlife is pro­tect­ed.
