The Masai Mara National Reserve is 1510 sq. km of open rolling grasslands that extend northward from Tanzania’s Serengeti. It reaches its pinnacle every July and August when over a million wildebeest and herd animals migrate here in search of lush grass, only to turn south for greener pastures in October and November.
About the great migration.
The largest movement of animals on the planet. Numbers annually varying, with the herd size estimated to can reach 1.5 million wildebeests, not to mention just under a million zebras, topi and eland.
Waves of zebras arrive first, mowing through the tall, coarse grass stems that shot up during the rains, and exposing the green leafy grasses preferred by the wildebeests following behind them.

While the exact route changes every year, the herds will inevitably have to cross the Mara and Talek rivers. Upon reaching the banks, the herbivore ranks stall hesitantly, knowing full well that Nile crocodiles lie waiting.
While there is safety in numbers, the herd will be thinned as thousands are eaten, crushed or drowned in the crossings. Those that do make it to the other side are not in the clear.
Lions wait in ambush, with scavengers such as hyenas and jackals eying good pickings. There are also cheetahs hiding out in the short grass plains, and leopards silently waiting in the treetops.
Kills are common during the migration, especially in the early morning, late afternoon and during the shelter of night. Miss it if only you hate good things but we recommend that you can book for a safari and witness the true movie scene of life time record breaking.
