Animal migration at Tarangire Park.

While Serengeti’s animal migration has not attained exciting fame, for tourists, little is known of Tarangire annual migration. The seasons of animal migration mainly differentiate the two parks, that is to say; animals in Serengeti migrate away from the park during the dry season (June to October), while animals in Tarangire migrate to the park from Maasai Steppe. Therefore, migrating seasons seem to be real opposite in the two parks.
Animals basically move to Tarangire park as they continue to quest for water that Tarangire River provides and predators move along questing for preys.

This period therefore makes the park have the largest concentration of animals than in any park in north Tanzania.
