The Great Migration in calving season is an exceptional natural event unfolds each year in the southern reaches of the Serengeti ecosystem: the wildebeest calving season. As part of the Great Migration, hundreds of thousands of wildebeest, along with zebras and other herbivores, gather on the nutrient-rich plains of Ndutu to give birth. This synchronized birthing phenomenon is a spectacle of life and a crucial moment in the survival of the species, as countless calves enter the world within a concentrated period to overwhelm predators. The fertile volcanic soils and seasonal rains of the area provide the perfect environment for this massive animal nursery, attracting an impressive number of predators and creating a cycle of drama, tension, and raw, untamed beauty.
The best time to see the Great Migration's calving season is from December, January, February to March, with the peak of the births occurring in February. During these months, the vast herds of wildebeest and zebra congregate on the fertile, short-grass plains of the southern Serengeti and the Ndutu region in Tanzania.
In December, the massive wildebeest and zebra herds arrive in the southern Serengeti and Ndutu Plains, drawn by the fresh, nutritious grasses that sprout following the short rains. They spend this time grazing and preparing for the upcoming calving season. The herds are often clustered in large numbers, providing excellent viewing opportunities.
As the new year begins, the migration cycle is in full swing on the short-grass plains of the southern Serengeti and Ndutu. While the peak of calving is still to come, births begin, attracting a noticeable increase in predator activity. The lush, green landscape offers a beautiful backdrop for viewing the herds.
This is the peak of the calving season, with hundreds of thousands of wildebeest calves born within a few weeks. The Ndutu area becomes a giant nursery, which attracts a high concentration of predators like lions, cheetahs, and hyenas hoping for an easy meal. Witnessing newborns taking their first steps minutes after birth is a powerful and unforgettable experience.
In March, the last of the calves are born, and the young are getting stronger and more able to keep up with the herd. The herds begin to disperse across the southern plains, feeding on the last of the green grasses before they start their journey north. Predator activity remains high, providing a final chance for dramatic predator-prey interactions in the southern Serengeti.
