When I talk to guests, I usually learn on my safari Land Rover steering wheel, as you see me in this photo. Here are a few of the things I have been telling them during the Great Migration this year.
It has been quite dry in the Mara during this great migration season. It has been difficult to monitor the actual movements of the herds. Instead of clustering as one bigger group as usual, the herds have formed smaller groups and are widespread all over selected locations with remnants of tall grass.
Black rhinos were almost extinct but conservation has helped bring them back. Now there are about 33 black rhinos living naturally in the Masai Mara Game Reserve, Kenya. Rhinos are the only animals being monitored by a special team of Rangers. This mature female is called SIXTEEN, she was counted rhino number 16. The baby is called SOILA. They have a territory not far from my Safari Camp (Siana Springs).
Giraffe are known to have a social grouping system of temporary association herds. As a way of showing dominancy, males perform a NECKING fight. A good necker is ranked higher in the group. During this fight, the guy on the left won.
Visit Siana Springs to find out much more!
