 Africa most famous Reserve  Africa's most famous national reserve, The Masai Mara runs along with the country's southwest border with Kenya. Just across the border from Tanzania`s Serengeti National Park. This gigantic ecosystem is shared by the two neighboring, and protected with a combination of National reserves and communities that run the conservation areas. Due to the rains, the vast herds arrive from Tanzania sometime between August and November each year, crossing some of Africa`s most famous, and the sinister patience of the predators that follow the herd all combine to form a pic life, and death saga that plays out beneath Kenya`s vast skies. Masai Mara offers a wide choice of accommodation, ranging from budget tented camps , mid-range , luxury , and high-end accommodations . Some are located inside in private conservancies, inside the reserve, along the mara river, and outside the Masai mara game reserve. Masai mara game reserve is not fenced, meaning that gam...

 What you should know about the wildebeest migration  Much research has focused on the influence of animal migrations on the terrestrial ecosystem. Mass drowning is an understudied phenomenon associated with migrations that may have substantial impacts on aquatic ecosystems. Wildebeest migration occurs nearly annually between Serengeti and Masai Mara. The Mass drowning’s contributed the equivalent biomass of 10 blue whale carcasses per year to this moderately sized river. Soft tissues of the carcass decompose within several weeks and are assimilated by both in-stream and terrestrial consumers. Bones decompose over years, which may influence nutrient cycling and food webs in the river on decadal time scales. The loss of migrations and associated mass drownings May fundamentally alter river ecosystems in ways previously unrecognized. The annual migration of nearly 1.2 million wildebeest (Connochaetes taurinus) through the Serengeti Mara Ecosystem is the largest remaining overl...
