Massive herd spotted at Ndutu Swamp!

HerdTracker update 25 Dec 2023 by George Thoms

This herd was spotted in the Ndutu Swamp area of the Serengeti National Park. These thirsty wildebeest stopped for a well-deserved drink on Christmas Day! This massive herd will now likely settle in the Ndutu area for calving season after which they will begin the migration route again with their new calves.

These two incredible videos were taken by George Thoms on the 25th of December 2023.

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

Recommended safari: Affordable Calving Season Safari
