Thousands of wildebeest are being born daily

HerdTracker update 11 Feb 2020 by Moses Nkapiani

The savannah is drying up, yet thousands of wildebeest are being born daily. February is the favoured month of the big cats.

February is a good month to visit the Masai Mara if you want to see lots of baby animals (up to half a million wildebeest are born this month), and you don’t mind afternoon thundershowers. Wildlife viewing is good, and birdwatching is excellent, with many migratory species present in the park.

The nearest accommodation to the herds: Kicheche Bush Camp, Masai Mara Safaris

Recommended safari: Herdtracker Masai Mara Wildebeest Journey

Monthly Herdtracker Migration Safaris

Join our HerdTracker guides on a scheduled HerdTracker Migration Safari. Stay at the right place, at the right time as our expert HerdTracker guides gets you close to nature's greatest spectable.
