Great Migrations on Nat Geo Channel

Did you catch the National Geographic Channel’s series premiere, Great Migrations, last night? As you might guess, the wildebeest migration through Tanzania, dubbed “The Great Migration,” was featured in the first episode called Born to Move. The clip below, from that episode, was shot in the southern Serengeti during wildebeest calving season. Here, the "circle of life" is on full display: complete with cheetah chases, protective zebras and the challenging plight of the wildebeest.

    I watched both episodes last night, they were excellent and the photography was stunning! I’m looking forward to next Sunday’s episode. The wildebeests and the zebras were awesome but I thought the monarch butterflies were beautiful too. That is quite a journey they make!

    You can bet I watched it! Adrenaline rush!!! Relived the excitement of the chase, the hunger of the carnivore, yet feeling the anguish of the grazer being chased….and caught. The most wonderful place on earth….that Serengeti.

    Indeed, another great program from Nat Geo. Have you seen the mock-documentary of the migration of the plastic bag? It’s really well done and has a good message behind it.
