Season 1

The Mara is probably the most diverse and important savanna ecosystem on the planet. It’s so special because it is the meeting place of migrations from the south and the north-east. This two-part mini series tells the story of what happens when the famous wildebeest migration departs. The absence of the wildebeest is the time when many of the Mara’s resident animals give birth to their young. This is a story about birth and growth, a factual look into what happens most of the year in this world-famous African wilderness.
