However, the most impressive that offers Mara undoubtedly remains the migration of wildebeest. By a herd of several thousand, they cross the river which they cross at the risk of their life. Driven by the group, in a hodgepodge of bellowings and splashes, some rush dangerously from the banks while others swim within reach of the jaws of monstrous crocodiles patiently settled, waiting for their time. A spectacle as grandiose as cruel.
