  The Great Wildebeest Migration The wildebeest (also known as the gnu) is a large antelope species that is native to eastern and southern Africa. One of the most notable natural phenomena involving wildebeests is the annual migration that takes place in the Serengeti ecosystem, which spans parts of Tanzania and Kenya. The Serengeti wildebeest migration is considered one of the largest animal migrations in the world. Each year, over 1.5 million wildebeests, along with hundreds of thousands of zebras and gazelles, migrate in a circular pattern across the Serengeti and Masai Mara ecosystems in search of fresh grazing and water.

This is a crucial time as the newborn calves need to be strong enough to make the grueling migration. In April to May, as the dry season approaches, the massive herd begins movin...
