Herd spotted crossing the Mara river at no 7

HerdTracker update 16 Sep 2023 by Mawe Lodges

This herd was spotted crossing the Mara river at crossing no 7. The wildebeest were fortunate to cross undisturbed as crossing no 7 is notorious for crocodile attacks! This herd was moving south, most likely seeking grazing ground due to recent heavy rainfall in the area.

This fantastic video was taken by @mawelodges on the 16th of September 2023.

The nearest accommodation to the herds: Sayari, Serengeti National Park Safaris

Recommended safari: Affordable Migration Safari from June to October in Tanzania (HerdTracker)
