The Great Wildebeest Migration Safari

Wildebeest Migration Safari Overview

The migration begins in the Serengeti. “Wildebeest tend to congregate in February, when they give birth to 300,000 calves, The reason for concentrating in the south is to give their calves the richest milk, as the soil and grass is rich in potassium, calcium and phosphorus from the volcanic eruptions of two to three million years ago. The southern part of the Serengeti has short grass, so wildebeest prefer to calve here, without fear of predators that typically lurk in taller grass. This Wildebeest Migration Safari takes you to the best destinations to witness this encounter.
