Every year, millions of wildebeests migrate from one grazing area to another in Africa, centered on Kenya, crossing open land, water and forest. And this year, they’ll do it on live TV.
The northward migration, from the Serengeti to the Maasai Mara is being live-streamed this week in 10 to 20 minute segments on Periscope, Twitter’s live-stream app, and on YouTube. The broadcast is sponsored by two safari lodges in the Mara area, and focuses on the tricky crossing of the Mara River.
The wildebeests are accompanied by thousands of gazelles, zebras and elands. For more information and some great pictures from The Telegraph (UK), click HERE. To register for access to the broadcasts, click HERE
