Day 2

Serengeti National Park

Serengeti National Park

Today is dedicated to a full day game drive along Serengeti plains. This is home to elusive lions, leopards, elephants, cheetah, buffalo, and a million wildebeest. The Serengeti is famed for its annual migration when some six million hooves pound the open plains. Each one is driven by the same ancient rhythm, fulfilling its instinctive role in the inescapable cycle of life. A frenzied three-week bout of territorial conquests and mating; survival of the fittest. You'll see 40km (25 miles) long columns wildebeests plunge through crocodile-infested waters on the annual exodus north. This replenishes the species in a brief population explosion that produces more than 8,000 calves daily before the 1,000km (600 miles) pilgrimage begins again.

“Magnificent Wildlife... The only living things which look as if they really belonged to it are the wild animals. Between the animals and Africa, there is an understanding that human beings have not yet earned." Laurens van der Post, Venture to the Interior, 1963.

Today, the Serengeti National Park, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, and the Maasai Mara National Reserve across the border in Kenya protect the greatest and most varied collection of terrestrial wildlife on earth. The Serengeti is one of the last great migratory systems still intact. The Serengeti is the jewel in the crown of Tanzania's protected areas, which altogether make up some 14% of the country's land area, a conservation record that few other countries can match.

The park is well known for its healthy stock of resident wildlife, particularly the "Big Five", named for the five most prized trophies taken by hunters: Lion, the Serengeti is believed to hold the largest population of lions in Africa due in part to the abundance of prey species.
