Zebra’s Ultra-Marathon Through Botswana
Most people think the Serengeti has Africa’s most impressive migrations, but Botswana’s zebras might disagree. These striped travelers clock over 300 miles in their annual trek across the Makgadikgadi and Nxai Pan National Parks. Small family groups band together into massive herds, creating a striking black-and-white parade visible from miles away. The zebras time their movements perfectly with seasonal rains, arriving just as fresh grass sprouts from the crusty salt pans.
