9 Days 8 Nights Wildbeest Calving Experience Safari
Description
During calving season, an estimated 500,000 wildebeest are born over a span of just a few weeks; over 9,000 could be born in a single day. This synchrony in birthing is a strategic survival mechanism; by overwhelming predators with sheer numbers, the chances of any one calf being caught are reduced. This period is crucial for the survival of the species, as it ensures the replenishment of the herd. Witnessing the birth of a wildebeest calf is a safari experience unlike any other. Wildebeest give birth standing up, and within minutes of being born, the calves are on their feet, wobbling but determined. This rapid development is vital, as they need to be ready to move with the herd almost immediately to avoid predation.
