The rain forest is part of the 1900ha reserve established in 1937 and is part of the broader Victoria Falls National Park. Among the animals that may be seen here are bushbuck, baboons and mongooses. There have been rare sightings of leopard in the undergrowth but no tourist has ever been attacked. The birdlife is profuse, with special sightings being the trumpeter hornbill, Schalow's turaco, the coppery sunbird and the blue waxbill.
