Astonished scientists recently discovered that these plains zebras (the most common of the species) make the longest migration of all land mammals in Africa.
The zebras remain at the Chobe River through October and November. In early to mid-December, most begin moving south, with a few lagging behind. By late February and early March, nearly all zebras start their northward journey back to the Chobe area, fully returning to the river in May and June.
The Zebra Migration, often referred to as Botswana’s Zebra Migration, is an annual movement of zebras between Botswana’s Okavango Delta and Makgadikgadi Pans National Park. It’s known as the longest land migration in Africa.
A population of zebras surprised biologists by making a more than 300-mile beeline across parts of Namibia and Botswana—the longest big-mammal migration ever documented in Africa. In the wilds...
Botswana hosts two zebra migrations, one of which is the longest mammal migration in Africa. The zebras travel in search of water and grazing.
More than 200,000 zebras migrate through the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem, constituting Africa’s largest zebra migration, according to the Tanzania Wildlife Research Institute. Zebras in the greater Serengeti-Mara ecosystem migrate primarily in response to seasonal rains.
The Great Migration is the largest overland migration in the world, with wildlife travelling a total of 800 km or more during each cycle. The magnificence of the event lies in its magnitude. Between 1.5 to 2 million wildebeest, zebras and other species plod or canter across Tanzania’s Serengeti and Kenya’s Maasai Mara in search of good grazing.
How Botswana Revived Africa's Largest Mammal Migration. Though the last zebra to have migrated on the path would have died 50 years ago, a new generation has started the same massive historic...
The Great Wildebeest Migration is one of the most iconic natural events in Africa, specifically in East Africa, between Tanzania and Kenya. This migration is an annual pattern of movement by over 1.5 million wildebeests, accompanied by large numbers of zebras, and smaller numbers of Grant’s gazelles, Thomson’s gazelles, elands, and impalas.
It has been eight years since researchers in Namibia and Botswana discovered the record-breaking zebra migration between Namibia’s Zambezi Region and Botswana’s Nxai Pan and Makgadikgadi Pan.
