'Tsavo' is a region of
Kenya located at the crossing of the
Uganda Railway over the
Tsavo River, close to where it meets the
Athi River. The place achieved fame in ''
The Man-eaters of Tsavo'', a book about
lions
who attacked workers building the
railroad bridge, an episode also depicted in the 1996 film ''
The Ghost and the Darkness''. It has recently been confirmed that in the upcoming video game,
Halo 3, Tsavo is actually a playable level named Tsavo Highway.
Two national parks,
Tsavo East National Park and
Tsavo West National Park are nearby.
