The Wildebeest Migration is one of the “Seven New Wonders of the World” and is also known as The World Cup of Wildlife. If there is a safari you should go on, this has it be it. The Maasai Mara wildebeest migration happens from July through to October. The migration has to cross the Mara River in the Maasai Mara where crocodiles will prey on them. This is one of the highlights as the animals try and cross the Mara River alive. It is always a great opportunity for people to witness nature at its best. You can witness the drama unfold as predators lurk in the bushes and prey run for safety in what has since been dubbed ‘survival for the fittest’.
