Umbrella acacia tree in Serengeti National Park - stock photo

A tree that commonly brings thoughts of the african savanahs to mind, the Umbrella Thorn Acacia Tree (Acacia tortilis) grows throughout Serengeti National Park. It can grow to a size from 13 to 68 feet tall and spreads its branches over a wide area, hence the name. Browsing animals eat the leaves together with the thorns, the latter more easily when young and soft. The older, hardened thorns can be a deterrent to over-browsing.
