Umfolozi Game Reserve, situated between the White and Black Umfolozi rivers. These rivers do not act as barriers and animals can cross into the adjoining Crown lands and Native Reserves, especially during the dry winter months when the rivers are low. Reports are occasionally received of White Rhino straying into native reserves where they are injured or killed by natives.
During certain months of the year, deaths are also reported in the Umfolozi GR. These deaths, amounting to about 5 per annum, mostly result from injuries sustained when fighting.
