Calving Season Safari
Witness New Life on the Serengeti Plains
Embark on a Calving Season Safari in Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park and witness one of nature’s most remarkable spectacles. Between December and March, the Ndutu region comes alive with the births of thousands of wildebeest calves, attracting predators and creating breathtaking wildlife interactions. This is the perfect opportunity for wildlife enthusiasts and photographers to experience the circle of life in its purest form.
Why Choose a Calving Season Safari?
The calving season is a critical period in the Great Migration. During this time:
- Over 250,000 wildebeest calves are born, creating an abundance of food for predators.
- Lion, cheetah, and hyena sightings increase, offering thrilling predator-prey encounters.
- The plains are lush and green, providing beautiful landscapes for photography and nature observation.
This safari provides not only an opportunity to see newborn calves but also to observe the Serengeti ecosystem in full balance.
