The Serengeti National Park is the greatest National Park on the continent. Its not just the wildlife, though the sight of more than two million animals moving across the plains is regularly cited as the greatest wildlife spectacle on Earth. The Serengeti National park is almost the size of Hawaii and the greater ecosystem an area encompassing the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. It was the Masai who called it Siringitu (The Place Where The Land Moved on Forever), and its precisely this sense of vastness that will blow you away. Serengeti National Park is known world wide for it's annual migration of the wildbeest and Zebras. The migration is central to the Serengeti's appeal. Its virtually continual movements of herds of wildebeests and zebras, thomson gazelles and thousands elands all following a millennia old instinct to seek new pasture as life sustaining rains that come twice a year sweep across the Serengeti National Park. Apart from migrating animals, the park sustains stable populations of many other species of wildlife, and you will certainly encounter giraffe, warthog, olive baboon, buffalos as well as elephants. More important, for most, at least is the larger population of predators. An stimated 2,000 lions alone prowl within the park, many of them teritorial and well habituated to human presence.
