Talek River migration point.

education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/wildebeest-migration

More than 1.5 million wildebeest migrate in an enormous loop every year, from Tanzania to Kenya Masai Mara and back.
The annual migration northwest, at the end of the rainy season (usually in May or June) is recognized as one of the "Seven Wonders of the Natural World."

The search for greener pastures does not come without danger. Its migration route crosses many rivers with steep banks, most filled with giant Nile crocodiles.

The monster Hyppos...basking in the sun.
The name hippopotamus comes from an ancient Greek word that translates to mean ‘river horse’ and despite its appearance he is actually thought to be the most closely related to whales.

Buena fotografía de esta catástrofe migratoria. La naturaleza sufre muchas bajas. Los molinos de parques eólicos matan millones de aves anualmente, ciertos embalses también embalsan ciervos. Envenenamientos fitosanitarios. No digamos enfermedades infecciosas...
