Great Wildebeest Migration
The Wildebeest Migration, also known as the Great Migration, is one of the most spectacular wildlife
Serengeti National Park is one of the most famous wildlife reserves in the world, located in northern Tanzania. It is renowned for its annual migration of over 1.5 million wildebeest and hundreds of thousands of zebras and gazelles, which attract many tourists and wildlife enthusiasts. The park covers about 14,750 square kilometers (5,700 square miles) of grassland plains, savannah, riverine forests, and woodlands. Serengeti National Park is the second largest park in Tanzania.
Witnessing the Great Migration in Serengeti National Park is one of the most breathtaking wildlife experiences in the world. Each year, millions of wildebeest, along with zebras and gazelles, journey across the Serengeti in search of fresh grazing lands and water. This natural phenomenon is a dramatic display of survival, as the animals traverse vast plains, cross rivers filled with crocodiles, and face predators like lions and cheetahs.
