I think the biggest difference is that during the wet season the elephants tend to scoot. Either west (Hobatere) or south into the thick Mopane woodlands.
One also tends to see far more lions during the dry season. Off the top of my head, I recall seeing 54 one October, which is somewhere between a fourth and a third of the entire Etosha population.
