Witness the awe-inspiring spectacle of the annual wildebeest migration as thousands of these majestic animals courageously navigate the treacherous Mara River, outmaneuvering hungry crocodiles and big cats, all while the iconic Big Five - lions, elephants, buffaloes, leopards, and rhinoceroses - traverse the expansive savannah.
