Big herds are still far in the south of the Mara

HerdTracker update 13 Aug 2015 by Alex Walker’s Serian

Hi Candice and Carel, 

News from within the Mara: 

The big herds are still far in the south of the Mara. They are all around the Sand River area, Keekorok and up as far as the Rongai. Still nothing substantial this side of the Talek River. The main crossings are over the Sand River. Still no crossings at the main crossing points. 

We had a big rain storm up here in MNC three nights ago, and the last two nights have been more drizzle than rain. 

Kind Regards,
Roisin Perrett
Manager
