The migration is one of the 7 natural wonders of the world and for many people, a once in a lifetime opportunity to see. The Great Migration is when over a million wildebeests and zebras cross the Mara River from the Serengeti in search of red oat grass and water. The sheer numbers of them in the Mara at this time of year is absolutely awe-inspiring.
Wildebeests and zebras have a symbiotic relationship. They live intermingled with one another because wildebeests have superior hearing and zebras have incredible eyesight and sense of smell. Co-existing with one another increases their chances of survival.
Guess what else?? We picnicked right in the middle of the herds underneath an acacia tree. How cool is that?!?
