Migration Report from the Masaai Mara
12/1/2019
Once the "migration season" comes to a close, and the wildebeest herds start moving south from the Maasai Mara, they don't decisively disappear but follow the rain south and then north again, criss-crossing back and forth across the Mara River – it is not a single mass movement, but more a chaotic gathering, which mean river crossings can occur daily from July all the way through late October. It is quite common to see the herds cross the river to the south one day, only for them to re-live the drama crossing to the north the next day. At Elewana Sand River in Kenya's Masaai Mara guests have even witnessed crossings from the comfort of camp, as shown in this video. |
