In spite of the size difference, it is the African elephants closest living relative, because of the close evolutionary relationship deduced from similarities in the structure of the feet and teeth. Dassies typically live in groups of 10-80 animals, and forage as a group. Their most striking behaviour is the use of sentries; one or more animals take up a vantage point and issue alarm calls on the approach of predators.

There are 7 carefully selected campsites, all nestled in and around huge boulders and set in under trees for extra shade. There is a central braai facility and a communal ablution block with basic showers and flush toilets. A small selection of cool drinks, tea/coffee are available, but otherwise campers must be completely self-sufficient. Day visitors are welcome to stop off for a refreshment/comfort stop.
