The
Serengeti The
Serengeti National Park is the second largest
of Tanzania's parks, it covers 14,763 sq.
km. in the north of the country. The name
is derived from the Masai language and means
"endless plains". It rises from
920 -1,850m above sea level. The landscape
varies from the long and short grass plains
in the south, the central acacia savannah,
the hilly, more wooded areas in the north,
and the extensive woodland, black clay plains
and mountain ranges of the western corridor.
The main rainy season is from November to
May. Some of the most famous features
of the Serengeti are the spectacular concentration
of plains game, and the annual wildebeest
migration, together with the large cats,
including lion, that follow the herds. Nearly
500 species of birds have been recorded
in the park.
