The Great wildebeest Migration is the largest herd movement of animals on the planet. The constant movement of 1.2 million wildebeest and 300,000 zebra along with topi and other
gazelle move in a constant cycle through the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem on an age-old route in search of grazing and water.
The circuit takes the animals from the Ngorongoro Conservation Area in the south of the Serengeti in Tanzania, up through the Serengeti and across into the Masai Mara in Kenya and back again. Predicting exactly when the great crossing of the animals across the Mara River is very difficult – nobody knows exactly when. It is generally believed that their journey is dictated primarily by
their response to the weather; they follow the rains and the growth of
new grass.
