  Слайд 3
  

  It was 1913 and great stretches of Africa were still unknown to thewhite man when Stewart Edward White, an American hunter, set out from Nairobi. Pushing south, he recorded: "We walked for miles over burnt out country... Then I saw the green trees of the river, walked two miles more and found myself in paradise."

  He had found Serengeti. In the years since White's excursion under "the high noble arc of the cloudless African sky," Serengeti has come to symbolize paradise to many of us. The Maasai, who had grazed their cattle on the vast grassy plains for millennia had always thought so.

  Over a million wildebeest and about 200,000 zebras flow south from the northern hills to the southern plains for the short rains every October and November, and then swirl west and north after the long rains in April, May and June.

  So strong is the ancient instinct to move that no drought, gorge or crocodile infested river can hold them back.The Wildebeest travel through a variety of parks, reserves and protected areas and through a variety of habitat.
