Maasai Mara is a large game reserve in Narok County, Kenya. It is home to the big five and is also famous for the annual migration of the wildebeest. It covers an area of about 531m2 in the southern part of Kenya. This park is named in honor of the Maasai people (the ancestral inhabitants of the area). Their description of the area when looked at from afar: is “Mara,” which is the Masai language for “spotted,” an apt description for the circles of trees, scrubs, savanna, and cloud shadows that mark the area. The terrain of the reserve is primarily grassland with seasonal river lets. Being a grassland savannah it receives an average rainfall of 83mm/month, with an altitude of 1500-2180m and temperatures of 12-30. The animals found in Mara include the big five (lion, rhino, elephant, leopard, and buffalo). Aside from the big five the other animals one can see in Masai Mara include hippos, giraffes, hyenas, and a high number of antelopes including the Topi a breed of antelope not common to other parks, the bush duiker, klipspringer, oribi, reedbuck, bush babies, the Nile crocodiles, crested porcupine, spring hare, pangolin, etc. Approximately 1,500,000 Wildebeest and 200,000 Zebra seasonally move from Serengeti to Masai Mara.
