The Mamba Village is a 30-acre mini zoo and resort located in Nairobi’s leafy Karen Suburb. Just as the name suggests “mamba” is a Swahili word for crocodile, which are the main tourist attraction, the Nile Crocodile to be specific.  The Nile crocodiles, Crocodylus niloticus, are very aggressive in nature as they can attack anyone within its range. Visitors need not to worry though as the crocodiles are enclosed within a fenced pool and can be watched and observed from a safe distance. Every Sundays at 4.30pm, is meal time for the crocodiles and visitors can watch as the crocodiles tear through meat. The crocodiles are grouped into families and have names. Peter being the eldest of them all with 24years. The young crocodiles of between 9-18 years are kept separate from the adult crocodiles. These helps keep them safe as older crocodiles can at times eat the younger crocodiles.
