Ndutu

This area comes alive during the calving season, when thousands of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles give birth on the fertile plains. The abundance of newborns draws a high number of predators, making this one of the best places to witness dramatic predator-prey interactions. With patience and a bit of luck, you may see lions, cheetahs, or hyenas on the hunt, or even experience the magical moment of a newborn calf standing up for the first time.
