For the brief rains in October and November, more than a million wildebeest and roughly 200,000 zebras migrate south from the northern hills to the southern plains. Following the lengthy rains in April, May, and June, they then veer west and north. The ancient urge to move is so powerful that no river, canyon, or crocodile-infested area can stop them. The renowned wildebeest migration is actually found in the Serengeti. Safari travelers can have a true African safari experience in the Serengeti National Park.
