Various communal area conservancies and community forests surround Mudumu National Park.

[1] The area is an important migration route from Botswana to Angola for large game species such as African elephant.

[2][3] There is no boundary fences, and Mudumu forms a crucial trans-boundary link for wildlife migration between Angola, Botswana, Namibia and Zambia.

In years of heavy rainfall, flooding can be extensive, although Mudumu is drier than her sister park, Nkasa Rupara.

[2][3] The park is situated approximately 35 kilometres (22 mi) south of Kongola, bordered by Botswana to the west, and various communal area conservancies.

This is a seasonally dry, open channel that drains the primarily Mopane woodlands of the hinterland to the east.

Other animals include African buffalo, lion, leopard, spotted hyena, cheetah, African wild dog, hippopotamus, Nile crocodile, sitatunga, meerkat, red lechwe, sable antelope, Common eland, giraffe, impala, plains zebra, blue wildebeest and spotted-necked otter.

Mudumu is situated in the centre of the Kaza TFCA and forms a corridor for elephant, buffalo, roan and sable antelope movement from Botswana into Angola and Zambia.

[3] KaZa includes numerous proclaimed national parks (including Mudumu), game reserves, community conservation areas, forest reserves, and iconic tourism destinations such as the Victoria Falls and Okavango Delta.

Stakeholders work together on law enforcement and anti-poaching, fire management (early burning), game monitoring and wildlife translocations.

NamParks has helped introduce park-friendly land-uses in the surrounding areas and collaborative management structures.
