Follow the herds, month by month

More than a million wildebeest circle the Serengeti every year. Choose a month to see where they are.

December – March

Calving on the Ndutu plains

The herds graze the short-grass plains of the southern Serengeti, where hundreds of thousands of calves are born, most of them in February.
