During the breeding season, there are more than 2 million flamingos that come to Lake Natron each year. This lake has gained the reputation of killing quite literally any creature which comes near the lake itself. Some of the photographs seen are staged by photographers after sifting through corpses along the shore of the lake. Contrary to popular belief the lesser flamingo birds will not instantly turn to stone.
This makes this area not very good for any wildlife with the exception of a few species of fish, endemic algae and flamingo birds who can survive the slightly less salty portions of the lake area. This is almost the same as ammonia making it rather toxic. With temperatures reaching up to 140 degrees ☏ or 60 ☌ with the rainfall, the alkalinity of the lake will reach upwards of 10.5.
