What we know
cultural note: Each year ~1.5 million wildebeest (plus zebra and gazelle) move between the Serengeti and the Mara; the dramatic Mara/Talek river crossings, with crocodiles and big cats, typically occur around July-October (weather-dependent). Nature's timing is unpredictable — no crossing is guaranteed on a given day.
