Wildebeest in Southern Serengeti for Calving Season

HerdTracker update 13 Jan 2023 by Discover Africa

On the 13th of January, a traveller captured footage of the wildebeest during their calving season in the Southern Serengeti. In the video, you can see a Wildebeest calf being born.

From December to February it is Calving Season for the Wildebeest and the herds would be found in the Southern region of the Serengeti. Here vulnerable calves are hunted by predators, and only the fittest will survive. In late February, the wildebeest herds will continue on their journey North where they will be facing new challenges.
