Wildebeest: The Great African Migration

Join a safari to the farthest reaches of the globe. Explore the secrets of nature’s incredible design. Journey into the kingdom of creation...to a place where nature tells its own story…and all through the lens of some of the finest wildlife photographers in the world.

The great wildebeest migration from the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya to Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park is a spectacle of life and death witnessed by few humans…until now..

At the start of the migration the wildebeest herd is one and a half million strong. But, the journey is plagued with predators. Cheetahs stalk and chase the strays. Hyenas and wild dogs shadow the herd and attack the calves. Leopards drag their kill into the trees. Lions seem to appear from nowhere – springing from the tall grasses. And crocodiles – monsters over 20 feet long – lurk in the shallows of the Grumeti River waiting for the thirsty herd. But just like every year, the wildebeest complete their great African migration while birthing an incredible half a million young along the way.

This wonderful series contains no evolution bias.
