Witness the Great Migration
Over 1.6 million herbivores (zebras, gazelles, and wildebeest) migrate between the Serengeti National Park and the Maasai Mara National Reserve each year. As they move, they go through great challenges and have to evade predators like lions, hyenas, leopards, and wild dogs. One of their greatest challenges is crossing the Mara River as they cross into Kenya. They have to cross the crocodile-infested river and deal with the high current. If they cross at the wrong point of the river, they risk drowning or stampeding on each other, leading to thousands of deaths. The wildebeest migration attracts tourists to the Serengeti because it offers countless opportunities to witness the great battles between prey and predator. Travelers can also spend the whole day watching the wildebeest graze or give birth (calving).
