Much ado about migration

Category: Travels

Almost like the Discovery Channel. We witnessed just part of the wilderbeest migration from the Southern Serengeti Plains to Moru Kopjes plains with huge granite rock formations like mini mountains in the sea of grass.

The migration is on-going as the animals move seasonally from the wet season range (South and east plains) to the dry season habitat (north and back again).

The beest were everywhere…as far as your eyes can see. I was rendered speechless at the sheer number of them…possibly in hundreds of thousands! Here’s just an image* to give you a perspective of what it’s like. Unbelievable, no!

*P.S: The linked site is NOT the company we used for our safari trip.
