The great migration…
Wildebeest are designed for running and can cover great distances at speeds of up to 80 km/h. The females and their calves live in herds, while the males are solitary. During periods of migration, they come together in groups of thousands of animals, stretching for kilometres, as they travel to areas where the grazing is more plentiful.
At La Barben, they live in the African plain enclosure with the white rhinos, the East African oryx and the springboks.
