$%*'`[AcidBurn]%*'`@The Base Camp - Tanzania's Serengeti PlainWhy Go: Each February, on the final leg of their legendary migration, more than two million wildebeests make for the southeast corner of Tanzania's Serengeti Plain to begin calving.Their pounding hooves are a dinner bell for the Serengeti's patiently waiting lions, cheetahs, hyenas, and leopards, which also feast on the hundreds of thousands of migrating zebras and gazelles. The primal drama is unparalleled, and there's no way to get closer to it than by pitching a tent right on the plain.<snip>There's nothing quite like sleeping under canvas for feeling the pulse of the migration: Wildlife regularly wander through the camp, and nearby lions go humph in the night.Need to Know: Flies follow the herds in equally astounding numbers, but, thankfully, they don't bite. Still, if you want to avoid a face-full of them as you photograph a newborn wildebeest, pack a mosquito head net.<snip>Edit Reason: The information is great on its ownthanks, no need to add to your advertisements.
