An Explanation of the Great Migration of Wildebeest
The Wildebeest Great Migration is a seasonal phenomenon. As a natural wildlife occurrence, it is dynamic and erratic. Consequently, witnessing the Great Migration cannot be assured.
The wildebeest and other wild herbivores migrate between the Masai Mara in Kenya and the Serengeti in Tanzania. These herds traverse an extensive circular path of approximately 1200 miles (1931 kilometers). It is a perpetual migration of wildlife observable in various regions at distinct periods throughout the year. At some intervals of this annual migration, the animals either disperse or decelerate, whilst at other times, the migration accelerates, resulting in larger and denser herds. The Wildebeest Great Migration not only differs by location and season but also fluctuates annually in the travel of these substantial animal herds.
Consult a travel advisor from Adventure in the wild Safaris on the Wildebeest Great Migration during your safari for further information. Additionally, consult our comprehensive essay regarding the Great Migration in the Serengeti and Masai Mara.
