The Masai Mara is still busy at this time of the year

HerdTracker update 11 Oct 2019 by Stephen Skinner

The Masai Mara is still busy at this time of the year!

The Great Migration is on the move, heading back down south, as the Masai Mara is starting to get hotter. The grassy plains have been denuded and the rain clouds are gathering in the Serengeti.

The predators follow the mighty herds, but only as far as their territories allow them to. The cats and hyenas are loathed to enter one another’s territory. During this season, the lioness have cubs that they must feed and take care of, so they can not go too far away.
