Great Animal migration in Africa; facts, cycle and wildebeests migration

The wildebeest, with their distinctive black and white striped coats and distinctive horns, are the undisputed stars of the show. These sturdy bovids are the backbone of the animal migration, leading the charge and setting the pace for the rest of the herd. Alongside them, the graceful zebras add a touch of charisma, their bold patterns serving as a visual cue for the wildebeest to follow.

The massive annual animal migration route in Africa covers 800km with wildebeest, zebra, gazelles, antelopes and other ungulates seeking new pasture, the herds move north from their breeding grounds in the grassy southern plains of Serengeti national park. Many cross the marshy western corridor’s crocodile-infested Grumeti River. Others veer northeast to the Lobo Hills, home to black eagles. Black rhinos inhabit the granite outcrops of the Moru Kopjes.

When to visit Serengeti national park on safari

For those fortunate enough to get a Serengeti national park safari visit, witnessing the great wildebeests migration is a once in a lifetime experience. The best times to see this spectacle vary depending on the specific stage of the migration. From December to March, the herds gather in the southern serengeti for calving season, while between July and October, they cross the Grumeti and Mara rivers, often facing the perilous challenge of crocodile infested waters.
