Migration from Serengeti to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru
Kenya Safaris: The Gnu
One of the World's biggest spectacles. Many have so described it. Many have come back time and again. They have witnessed this mass movement of wild animals roaming free through unspoiled and savage wilderness. The air fills with the click- click of the cameras tirelessly. You have not seen something like this before.
Africa is changing at a quick pace and human encroachment into the wildlife reserves has continued to erase the traditional routes. In association with development and changes of the way of life, the image of wildlife roaming free is slowly getting erased. Fortunately, Masai Mara National reserve holds on to its charisma of an open, limitless land. It is one of the places in Africa that still prides in wildlife concentration.
Masai Mara is located in the South-western of Kenya, 290 kilometers from Nairobi. The abundance of wildlife and the remoteness of the reserve implant memories that no money can buy.
The Migration is a recent phenomenon (60's and 70's was the biggest boom) with about 250,000 individuals. Gradually, with time the number has risen to the current population of over 3,000,000 individuals. Add to it an estimated 1,500,000 Zebras and the result is one of the most magnificent scenes in the world. The massive display attracts hundreds of big cats as the populations provide abundant prey. The giant African crocodiles lie in wait, patiently, as the big herds come to cross the river or to drink.
It is the Masai community who are not so pleased with the whole phenomenon. The beasts compete with their huge herds of boran cattle for the grasslands. To them, it is a big calamity especially because the wildebeests transmit diseases to their herds and poison the waters with their fetal sacs.
This world famous migration is a circle of life which, in simple terms, means that there isn't a start or an end. Only where the herds are located at a particular time. The big determinant is the availability of pastures.The plains of Ngorongoro Conservation Area in Serengeti are a favored spot as grass abounds and the wildebeest find a safe place to graze. It is also here that over 500,000 new calves are born and many are taken by the nearby waiting Jackals or Hyenas.
New borns have little time to strengthen their legs. As soon after birth, the “pilgrim continues.
By April, the rains are over in southern Serengeti and the plains have dried up. The great herds then gather and face the long march northwards and westwards. The natural lawn mowers abandon the exhausted grasslands of southern Serengeti to head for the already tall grass of the Western corridor, near the shores of Lake Victoria.
The pioneers of the migration movement are the majestic herds of zebras. They prefer the long stems of the coarse grass. This way, they leave behind shorter grass which is favored by the wildebeests.
In late June to July the mass start pouring into the Kenya Masai Mara reserve where fresh, tender and mineral-rich grass is already waiting. Here they meet the resident Mara populations which add up to about 150,000. Also commonly referred to as the Loita plains herds, they spend most of the season northeast of the Mara. When it gets dry, they pour into the interior of the Mara in search of greener pastures.
The migrating herds spend roughly 3 to 31/2 months in the Mara crossing through Sand River, which is a tributary of the Mara along the boundary of Kenya and Tanzania. They trek westwards and cross the Mara River and sometimes the Talek River. Usually around this time heavy rains on the Mau Escarpment (origin of Mara River) fill the Mara River to the brim.
This is a good time to watch the trunk-looking Crocodiles, while they await the forthcoming feast.
Finally, the gnus (wildebeests) venture into the river. This gregarious coordinated behavior of the herds, usually teamed with zebras, creates an unimaginable scene. Just what the cameras have been waiting for.
They wander along the river looking for a convenient crossing point. This is a moment filled with tension for both the gnus (wildebeests) and the audience.

2 Day Luxury African Safari | Maasai Mara Kenya | Kenyan American Couple
Check out our blog post for prices and details!
Hello everyone,
This video was a pleasure to edit and relive these amazing moments on safari. We travelled to Kenya and took a 2 day luxury safari and it was amazing. WE visited the Masai Mara Reserve in Kenya
On our list were the Big Five: Buffalo, elephant, rhinoceros, leopard, and lion. We got 4 of the 5. Leopards are notoriously hard to spot as they are nocturnal and also live up in very high trees.
In addition we saw many other animals including giraffes, hippos,s zebra, wildebeest and impala, jackals and hyenas. Is your favorite animal in this list?

From Kenya With Love | April 2018
In April 2018 a trip was arranged to Kenya by the Play For Smiles' team. Iman Donia was one of the volunteers who literally flew all the way from Dubai for a day to spend it with our beautiful children. Iman documented the trip through her lens and put together this beautiful compilation. We love you Iman and we look forward to have you join us again. You are one of our family members already. Much love from us and all the children.
