The Great Migration of the Wildebeest | Serengeti Mara River Post | Tanzania 2022 | 4K-Video

One of the biggest animal migration on earth: The great migration of wildebeest and zebras in Serengeti and Masai Mara. Every year, around 1.7 million wildebeest and 260'000 zebra head north from the southern Serengeti via Grumeti to the northern Serengeti where they have to cross the Mara river to continue their journey into the Masai Mara in Kenya. The crossing of so many wildebeest over the Mara river is the most spectacular animal sighting we have ever experienced in our life. The wildebeests migrate in loose herds to the Mara River. Suddenly huge groups of thousands of animals are forming and look for a save spot to cross the river. It is not uncommon that a crossing is aborted at the very last moment and the entire herd withdraws from the river and disappears in the bush. But once the leading animal decides to cross the river, hundreds of wildebeests will jump down the river bank and into the water to reach the other side. That is the moment that predators are waiting for. Suddenly a crocodile appears out of nowhere and attacks the nearest wildebeest, grabbing its leg and pulling it out of the herd. There is no escape from the crocodiles teeths and slowly it is pulled into deeper water where more and more crocodiles are joining the scene. With a mighty final snap the unfortunate wildebeest is pulled underwater, never to be seen again. The Serengeti is also home to many other species of antelopes, such as Impala, Eland, Hartebeest, Klipspringer, Oribi, Reedbuck, Topi and Waterbuck. Lion, Leopard and Hyena are the main predators that we encountered and plenty of birds can be spotted along the river and in the bush. Welcome to our wildlife safari to the northern Serengeti National Park in Tanzania in July 2022. We stayed five nights at the wonderful Mara River Post Lodge and would like to thank the excellent staff and our amazing guide for this unforgettable safari.
