Large herds at the Mara / Serengeti border

HerdTracker update 20 Oct 2015 by Alex Walker’s Serian

Hi Carel,

We’ve seen continued crossings over the past few days at number four headed north.

We've had big rains at Kogatende and over the southern part of the Mara Triangle have brought fresh grass. I can see large herds, 200,000 or so across the plains, mobile and straddling the Mara Serengeti border.

Our internet is not strong enough for images but I’ll ask if one of the guides has some on their phone to send through to you.

Cheers,
Alex
