Serengeti national park is located in northern Tanzania and borders Kenya. The park covers an area of 14,750 square kilometers. It is one of the oldest ecosystems in the world. The park is known for its vast savannas, lush grasslands, forests and rock formations “masai kopjes. The Serengeti is home to more than 500 bird species and an abundance of wildlife, over 70 species of large mammals can be found here such as buffalo, zebra, wildebeest and elephant. In the Serengeti you have the opportunity to spot the Big-Five. Retina ‘hippo pool’ in central Serengeti is the place to spot hippos. \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Great Migration in Serengeti national park<\/strong>
Every year, more than 2 million wildebeest, zebra and gazelle migrate through the Serengeti in search of grass and water, followed by predators such as lions and hyenas. The “Great Migration” is in a different part of the Serengeti each season. The absolute highlight is when the animals try to cross the Mara River. This natural phenomenon takes place between the months of July and October. By hundreds at a time, the wildebeest run through the water in which crocodiles lurk. Of course, not all of them make it across the river. In the spring, months of January through March, the birth wave takes place in the south, an average of 8,000 calves are born daily.
In the Serengeti, just before Naabi Hill gate is also the archaeological Olduvai Gorge where some of the oldest known human fossils were found in 1911 by a German professor. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
