Day 4

Serengeti National Park

Serengeti National Park

Serengeti means "endless plains" in Kiswahili. This 6,900 sq. mile (18,000 sq. km) park is home to more than two million large animals, including over a million wildebeest, hundreds of thousands of plains zebras, and Thomson's gazelles. Large predators such as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas are drawn to the area by this abundance of prey, which migrates throughout the park. Many smaller animals—including rock hyrax, bat-eared foxes, mongooses, honey badgers, jackals, monkeys, baboons, and African hares—also inhabit the area, along with nearly 500 bird species.
