In Kenya, the annual wildebeest migration is best observed at the Maasai Mara National Reserve.1
This migration involves vast herds of plains animals, including wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles, moving between the Serengeti in Tanzania and the grasslands of the Mara in Kenya. The herds typically arrive in the Mara region after moving north from the Serengeti in late May or June, remaining there before returning to the southeastern plains of the Serengeti around November as the dry season ends.2
