The Migration Calving Season in the Serengeti, from January to March, is an extraordinary event. During this time, the Great Migration reaches its peak as vast herds of wildebeest, zebras, and other herbivores come together to give birth in the fertile plains. Witnessing this is like stepping into a raw, natural spectacle. The landscape is alive with the sight of newborn wildebeests taking their first steps, while predators lie in wait, drawn by the abundance of easy prey. The Calving Season showcases the dual aspects of life’s vulnerability and resilience in the wild, offering a compelling view of nature’s drama.
Every year in June and July, an incredible event unfolds in the Serengeti. Millions of wildebeest and zebras embark on their journey to find better grazing lands. This migration involves a dramatic challenge – crossing the Mara River, teeming with crocodiles and strong currents. Before the crossing, the animals gather at the riverbanks, creating a tense anticipation. When they finally brave the river, it’s a chaotic and adrenaline-charged moment. Facing the dangers of strong currents and crocodiles, the Migration Crossing Season highlights the animals’ determination and survival instincts. It’s a powerful testament to nature’s raw power and the relentless struggle for survival.
