The greatest show on earth
SERENGETI WILDEBEEST MIGRATION
The wildebeest migration is often punted as the “greatest show on earth”. Also known as one of the Seven New Wonders of the World. It doesn’t have a simple start or end, just a dynamic cycle of wild movement through the year. It’s never the same each year either. Not very predictable but easy enough to witness if you plan around some key points. People usually refer to this as the serengeti migration, but you can also see it on the Masai Mara in Kenya.
