Dramatic Mara river crossing at no 7
This herd was spotted crossing the Mara river at crossing no 7. A very difficult crossing for the determined wildebeest with the strong current and many rocks! Crossing no 7 is known for usually having many crocodiles present.
This awesome video was taken by @steve.safari.photography on the 23rd of August 2023.
