Serengeti is the only remaining natural grazing ecosystem to be found in the World. The vast open plains in the heart of the complex stretch away as far as the eyes can see and throb with life in an endless annual rhythm that is maintained by a migrating herd of 1.1 million gnu and the best known population of great predators, lions and spotted hyenas on the frontline to be found on earth. The giant Nile Crocodiles are awaiting their turns as the big migration enters their areas. The richness of the wild fauna of Serengeti is dazzling, but it is all living in the rhythm of the seasons…. Olli Marttila in his Book, The Great Savanna, 2011.
