The Serengeti region, found in the Eastern African countries of Tanzania and Kenya, encompasses over seven parks and reserves and two World Heritage Sites. The ecosystem is one of the oldest on earth. Life and death are played out every year as over one million wildebeest and more than 200,000 zebras migrate to follow the rains, forging crocodile infested rivers and facing droughts. Sadly many animals still find their biggest danger in the Serengeti from humans. Illegal poaching takes over 40,000 animals every year.
