Every year, there is no more spectacular scene on the African savannah, but there is no more spectacular show than this show, as if people can see this barren land gradually replaced by a large field of black pressed stars, with a sense of horror and curiosity, even people did not think that it would be such a scene before.
This black oppressive star is a huge population of animals, and every year it stages an even more thrilling migration across this grassland.
And this is not the animals migrating to chase the beautiful scenery, but to survive, after all, this is also the web page on which many wild animals in the grassland depend, but their travel mode has not been reduced by the spectacle.
Even because their numbers have become more spectacular, this black oppressive animal makes people wonder if this is a "superstar" in the animal kingdom, what is it?
At the same time, why do these animals paint such a spectacular picture on the grassland?
The Great Wildebeest Migration.
The grassland that people see is actually the habitat of these animals, so it is not surprising that these animals appear on the grassland, but people are curious about what these animals are?
Because people look like animals the size of cows, some people wonder if this is a cow or a horse.
The animals that migrate on the African savannah are actually wildebeests, and it is the migration of wildebeest that makes the grassland a spectacular scene.
Because such a large population is like a large black patch, it makes people think that it is a black oppressive star.
And it's the interplay of these stars that allows them to survive.
Therefore, these animals are not only the stars of the animal world, not to mention the stars, but even the "Buddhas" of the animal world, because these animals are still the "green guardians" of the grassland.
Therefore, there are not only these animals in this grassland, but there are also other animals, but the reason why they are called "green guardians" is mainly because the feces and activities of these animals promote the growth of plants.
So much so that the growth of plants appears to be stronger, which is the origin of the title of "Green Guardian".
So these animals are not the best representation of these animal species, but the species of the steppe.
This is also the reason for the migration of these huge stars, in this grassland, in addition to what people think is the signal, it is more for food and water.
Therefore, the temporary threat of these animals on this grassland is also the predators, because the spectacle caused by these animals is not only their migration, but also the process of their predation.
When encountering the appearance of carnivores such as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas, these animals are not easy to prey on for these predators, because the number of wildebeest is huge, and it is difficult to prey on wildebeest even if there are many predators.
So the predator's predatory behavior is like hitting a big luck, sometimes the unlucky may not even be able to hunt a wildebeest, sometimes the luck can catch a wildebeest, but if they have a large population, even a few lionesses are not enough to eat.
After all, these are only the difficulties that predators need to face, and when facing such a large group of animals, predators must also face the protection behavior of these animals for their own group, and in the face of such a huge number, it is difficult for predators to get close at all.
This also makes predators "look at the grass and sigh" when faced with a large number of wildebeests.
Therefore, even if there are predators, most of them are "empty-handed", so there are predators in the migration of wildebeest, but the probability of predation to wildebeest is not large, especially when the number of wildebeest is large.
In the animal kingdom, the number of wildebeest is still very large, so it also has to face some troubles, which is the problem of wildebeest breeding.
Breeding of wildebeest.
In the animal kingdom, many animals breed in a fixed way, and this is not the same, the reproductive cycle of wildebeest coincides with the migration cycle.
Therefore, in the breeding of wildebeest, not all wildebeest can breed smoothly, which also leads to some young wildebeest do not have the opportunity to breed, and if these wildebeest can have a good chance in breeding, then they are also very advantageous.
First of all, it is a matter of age, young wildebeest is more robust, easier to catch food, and at the same time, the physical fitness is better, and it can withstand the "toss" of childbirth.
At the same time, after the successful birth of the young female wildebeest, the young wildebeest will live by the mother's side for a period of time, so that the mother will take good care of the young wildebeest, so that the young wildebeest can grow well, and the young wildebeest can adapt to the environment very quickly.
Although the baby wildebeest is still small, they are very fast and much faster than the other wildebeest.
At the same time, young wildebeest also seek food for themselves, so they are able to adapt to their environment after birth and hardly need other animals to care for them.
Therefore, the reproductive cycle of wildebeest coincides with the migration cycle because these young wildebeest do not have enough time to adapt to the environment of the grassland, and only in the process of migration can they find a suitable habitat.
The influence of wildebeest.
As these wildebeests migrate, they also leave a lot of manure on the grassland, which can be used as nutrients for plant growth.
Therefore, with the migration of wildebeest, it will also promote the growth of plants, which is the influence of wildebeest on the grassland.
Moreover, the impact on the plants on the grassland during the activity of these wildebeests is positive, so the grasslands become vibrant because of the migration of wildebeests.
At the same time, the migration of these wildebeest can also drive the population activities of animals in the whole grassland, which is also an important factor in promoting the ecological development of the grassland.
Therefore, wildebeest can not only survive and reproduce on the grassland, but also affect the growth of grassland plants, and is a veritable "green guardian".
The migration of wildebeest also forms a spectacular sight.
If we want to see it for ourselves, every year in the African savannah there are people who organize such a viewing event.
These events are usually held in sub-Saharan Africa.
Start in Kenya's Great Rift Valley and head to the Serengeti grasslands of Tanzania.
This is a very unique tourist program, and from March to July every year, groups of animals visit both in the sky and in the water.
The six months of dry climate in the Rift Valley have forced animals to search for water.
They migrate south at a speed of five to eight kilometers per hour.
At the same time, during the migration, many predators will also join in, such as lions, cheetahs, etc.
These predators are sometimes even the first to migrate.
Therefore, while we see these wildebeests, we also have the opportunity to catch a glimpse of the predators.
This kind of viewing is very popular, attracting many tourists every year, and of course, it also brings development to the local economy.
epilogue
There are many strange phenomena in the animal world, and the migration phenomenon of wildebeest is very spectacular, and wildebeest is not only an integral part of the grassland ecosystem, but also a "green guardian", positively affecting the grassland ecology.
At the same time, with global climate change, wildebeest will be affected, and the environment of the grassland will change, and we need to better study this migration phenomenon.
At the same time, we should also protect the habitat of wildebeest and provide a better grassland environment for their migration.
