The Lives of Elephants

Journey into the Heart of the Great Migration
The Great Migration is a spectacle filled with dramatic crossings, predatory ambushes, and the relentless cycle of life and death, painted against the backdrop of some of the Mara’s most majestic landscapes. To immerse oneself in it is to witness the earth’s heart beating in its most primal form, one that captures incredible moments of courage, endurance, and the sheer will to press forward.
A Birder’s Paradise
