Scattered wildebeest herds across open Serengeti grassland

4 questions answered

Where is the Great Migration each month?

In most years the wildebeest herds spend roughly December to March on the southern Serengeti plains, where calving usually peaks in February. From April to June they move north and west through the central Serengeti and the Western Corridor. From about July to October they are often in the northern Serengeti and Kenya's Maasai Mara, crossing the Mara River. In November they head south again. The herds follow the rain, so timing shifts every year.
