In the case of the Serengeti, it is over 14,000 sq kms - so you can really see just how big this particular area might be! The camping we're doing is quite a bit different from the provincial park camping we might have done at home.
We could hear the hyenas around the camp last night, but none of the wild animals seem to cause problems - they can wander in and out of camp if they desire, but so far the closest thing that we've seen near our camp is a warthog, monkeys, and ummm, the 'droppings' of an African buffalo. 
Of course, we would not go off walking or wandering around without an escort/guide and they give us hints on things we should do/not do when we need to go to the bathroom at night. It's all about respect of the animals and their environment...and a little common sense, I guess.
