The annual wildebeest migration is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Kenya that occurs during the months of July and August.
This year, the migration is expected to bring in millions of dollars in revenue for the country as predicted by Stephen Ole Minis, the game warden at the Maasai Mara game reserve.
According to the news reports by Kenya News Agency, Minis lauded the county government of Narok for the implementation of the Maasai Management Plan adding that it is important and contributes to more profits.
Minis encouraged Kenyans to come to witness the wonders at a cheap price, where the animals cross from the neighboring park Serengeti National Park from Tanzania to Kenya.
Similar sentiments were echoed by Jackson Ole Mpario, the chairman of the Conservation Unions in the park, admitting the increase in wild animals and tourists.
The Maasai Management Plan is a comprehensive plan that aims to improve the management of the Maasai Mara National Reserve. The plan includes provisions for security, tourism, and conservation.
The implementation of the Maasai Management Plan has led to an increase in security in the park. This has made it safer for tourists to visit the park, which has led to an increase in tourism.
The wildebeest migration is a natural phenomenon that occurs every year when millions of wildebeest, zebras, and other animals move from the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania to the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya.
The Migration is a vital part of the ecosystem where the wildebeest help to keep the grasslands healthy by grazing on the grass and their droppings fertilize the soil. The migration also helps to disperse the wildebeest’s predators, which helps to keep populations in check.
