The Great Migration (Eastern African wildebeest migration)
The Great Migration in Eastern Africa is a remarkable event where over a million wildebeest, along with hundreds of thousands of zebras and other animals, move annually across plains and rivers in search of fresh grazing and water. This vast, seasonal journey, spanning countries like Tanzania and Kenya, follows rainfall patterns, typically from the Serengeti to the Maasai Mara and back. The migration supports the ecosystem, with predators like lions and crocodiles benefiting from the abundance of prey. It is one of the most spectacular wildlife phenomena, showcasing the dynamic and interconnected nature of the African wilderness.
