Animal Migration in East Africa refers to the movement of animals between
Serengeti and Mara parks.
In late May / early June wildebeests and zebras begin their annual
migration from western Serengeti thru the northern Serengeti to the
Mara crossing the Mara River. They reach Maasai Mara Park sometime
in mid July /early August depending on rain endings. After the short
rains in the month of November, the herds move back into Serengeti
and make their way to the southern pastures where they rest and feed
through the rains until their search for better grazing leads them
back north in their annual migration once again.

This occurs in late January ~ mid March, with thousands of them born
daily within that time frame. This happens frequently in southern Serengeti.
