The ubiquitous plains of East Africa are the centre stage, the setting for the world's greatest wildlife spectacle - the 1.5 million animals ungulate (hoofed) the wildebeest migrations. From the immense Serengeti plains to the champagne coloured hills of Kenya's Masai Mara over 1.4 million wildebeest and more han 200,000 zebra and gazelle, relentlessly tracked by Africa's great predators, migrate in a clockwise fashion over 1,800 miles each year in search of rain ripened grass. The Journey has no beginning and no ending it is the life story of the wildebeests. The journey starts as the calves are born in transit mother and child proceeds taking care not to be left behind the herd for the danger loams in form of the king of the jungle or any other predator searching for a meal. Its life is destined to an endless pilgrimage, a constant search for pasture and water from birth to death. An estimated 400,000 wildebeest calves are born during a six week period early each year - usually between late January and mid-March in Tanzania thus the best time to take a wildlife Migration safari in Tanzania is in the months of December through to March
