It is a fantastic gift for children interested in the animal kingdom, and is also a useful reference material for school projects.
Each year more than 1 million Wildebeest make the migration across of Africa. Their 2,900 kilometre journey goes through Tanznia's Serengeti plains, Kenya's Masia Mara National Reserve, down to Tanzania's Ngorongoro Conservation area and back again. They travel in a constant clockwise cycle, varying the path slightly depending on the season and conditions. The wildebeest travel with zebras and ostriches. Wildebeest have good hearing, but not very good sight or smell. Ostriches have good eyes, while zebras have a keen sense of smell. Each takes cues from the others, helping them all to be aware of predators.
