Calf taking its first steps on the plains of Kakesyo!

HerdTracker update 12 Feb 2024 by Michael Laubscher

A calf was born on the Kakesyo plains near the Ndutu area of the Serengeti National Park. Calving season is well underway as thousands of wildebeest calves are being born every day on the plains. This beautiful scene encapsulates the beginning of the first migration journey for these wildebeest calves as they start running with the herd within just a few hours of birth.

This stunning video was taken by Michael Laubscher on the 12th of February 2024.

The nearest accommodation to the herds: Ndutu Safari Lodge, Serengeti National Park Safaris

Recommended safari: Affordable Calving Season Safari
