Guests will encounter a slew of new animals and notice several enhancements to their experience when the Six Flags’ safari re-opens for the season on Saturday.

The new additions are highlighted by Sawyer, a 6-year-old, 3,800 pound southern white rhinoceros and three giraffe calves, who were born at the safari in Jackson during the winter, Six Flags said.

Other animals who will make their debut at Six Flags Wild Safari Drive-Thru Adventure in 2022 are a pair of sable antelope calves, two red lechwe calves (a type of antelope), and two Asian water buffalo calves.

American bison, zebra, aoudad, kangaroo, dama gazelle and blackbuck will join the 350-acre safari through the spring.

The audio tour will be able to be steamed from mobile devices.

Six Flags has also beefed up its educational programs. Among the additions is Safari Off-Road Education — an offering in which guests ride in a giant, off-road vehicle with a personal tour guide and driver.
