TANZANIA SAFARI - 35 Blue Wildebeest (Connochaetes taurinus) & Plains Zebra (Equus quagga) migration
The precise timing of the Serengeti Wildebeest migration varies from year to year, and is dependent upon variations in the weather, the available grazing and available water.
The Wildebeest journey starts in the south of the Serengeti where the herds occupy the short-grass plains that spread over the lower northern slopes of the Ngorongoro Crater highlands and around Olduvai Gorge. Half a million calves are born between January and March. Predators like lions and hyenas are constantly hunting for young calves, and thousands of calves are born within a couple weeks of each other.
